Universal Declaration on Human Rights

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights is a global agreement adopted in 1948 that outlines fundamental rights and freedoms everyone is entitled to, regardless of nationality, race, or background. It includes rights to life, freedom of speech, education, and safety, aiming to promote dignity, equality, and justice worldwide. While it is a statement of principles rather than a binding law, it sets a common standard for governments and societies to uphold basic human rights and respect individual freedoms.
