Rights Principles
Understanding the Principles of Rights
Rights principles are the basic rules that guide how rights work:
- Universality: Rights belong to everyone
- Equality: All people deserve equal treatment
- Non-discrimination: Rights apply regardless of differences
- Interdependence: Rights are connected to each other
- Accountability: Someone must ensure rights are protected
These principles help us understand:
- Why rights are important for everyone
- How rights work together
- What happens when rights are not protected
- How to make sure rights are respected
- The foundation of fair societies
