Definition of Human Rights
What are Human Rights? Human rights ensure that all people are treated with dignity and equality. ... No matter what country we live in, who our parents are or what religion we practice, human rights are essential. They are universal and should never be denied. Human rights are about compassion, understanding and respect.
