Human Rights Institutions Questions
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) is a milestone document adopted by the United Nations General Assembly on December 10, 1948. It is a comprehensive set of 30 articles that outline the fundamental rights and freedoms to which all individuals are entitled, regardless of their nationality, race, religion, gender, or any other status. The UDHR serves as a global standard for human rights and has been translated into over 500 languages. It covers a wide range of rights, including civil, political, economic, social, and cultural rights, such as the right to life, liberty, equality, education, and freedom of speech. The declaration has played a crucial role in shaping international human rights law and has inspired the creation of various human rights institutions and treaties worldwide.
