Human rights
are rights inherent to all human beings, whatever our nationality, place of
residence, sex, national or ethnic origin, color, religion, language, or any
other status. We are all equally entitled to our human rights without
discrimination. These rights are all interrelated, interdependent and
indivisible.
Universal
human rights are often expressed and guaranteed by law, in the forms of treaties,
customary international law, general principles and other sources of
international law. International human rights law lays down obligations of
Governments to act in certain ways or to refrain from certain acts, in order to promote and protect human rights and fundamental freedoms of individuals or groups.

It very
important for us understand our human rights and help them who are unaware
