Third Generation Human Rights

Third Generation Human Rights, often referred to as "collective" or "group" rights, focus on the benefits and protections that extend to communities and societies rather than just individuals. This includes rights such as the right to development, a healthy environment, and peace. These rights recognize that individuals can only fully realize their potential within the context of a supportive community and a sustainable planet. Third-generation rights emphasize global cooperation and responsibility, acknowledging that issues like environmental degradation and economic inequality affect everyone and require collective action for resolution.
