Have you ever studied
the convergence of
technology and
humanity?
Living in a just and progressive society where citizens have the freedom to
grow is what the good life includes.

The human person has the freedom to make decisions that will allow him or
her to grow as a person and as a society.
UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF HUMAN
RIGHTS
On December 10, 1948, the United Nations
General Assembly recognized the UDHR
(Universal Declaration of Human Rights) as the
worldwide standard of fundamental human rights
for universal recognition and protection.

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights

Article 1: We are all born free. We all have our own thoughts and ideas and we should all be treated the
same way.

Article 2: The rights in the UDHR belong to everyone, no matter who we are, where we’re from, or
whatever we believe.

Article 3: We all have the right to life, and to live in freedom and safety.

Article 4: No one should be held as a slave, and no one has the right to treat anyone else as their slave.

Article 5: No one has the right to inflict torture, or to subject anyone else to cruel or inhuman treatment.
Article 6: We should all have the same level of legal protection whoever we are, and wherever in
the world we are.

Article 7: The law is the same for everyone, and must treat us all equally.

Article 8: We should all have the right to legal support if we are treated unfairly.

Article 9: Nobody should be arrested, put in prison, or sent away from our country unless there is
good reason to do so.

Article 10: Everyone accused of a crime has the right to a fair and public trial, and those that try us
should be independent and not influenced by others.
Article 11: Everyone accused of a crime has the right to be considered innocent until they have fairly
been proven to be guilty.

Article 12: Nobody has the right to enter our home, open our mail, or intrude on our families without
good reason. We also have the right to be protected if someone tries to unfairly damage our
reputation.

Article 13: We all have the right to move freely within our country, and to visit and leave other
countries when we wish.

Article 14: If we are at risk of harm we have the right to go to another country to seek protection.

Article 15: We all have the right to be a citizen of a country and nobody should prevent us, without
good reason, from being a citizen of another country if we wish.
Article 16: We should have the right to marry and have a family as soon as we’re legally old enough.
Our ethnicity, nationality and religion should not stop us from being able to do this. Men and women
have the same rights when they are married and also when they’re separated. We should never be
forced to marry. The government has a responsibility to protect us and our family.

Article 17: Everyone has the right to own property, and no one has the right to take this away from us
without a fair reason.

Article 18: Everyone has the freedom to think or believe what they want, including the right to
religious belief. We have the right to change our beliefs or religion at any time, and the right to
publicly or privately practise our chosen religion, alone or with others.

Article 19: Everyone has the right to their own opinions, and to be able to express them freely. We
should have the right to share our ideas with who we want, and in whichever way we choose.

Article 20: We should all have the right to form groups and organise peaceful meetings. Nobody
should be forced to belong to a group if they don’t want to.
Article 21: We all have the right to take part in our country’s political affairs either by freely
choosing politicians to represent us, or by belonging to the government ourselves. Governments
should be voted for by the public on a regular basis, and every person’s individual vote should be
secret. Every individual vote should be worth the same.

Article 22: The society we live in should help every person develop to their best ability through
access to work, involvement in cultural activity, and the right to social welfare. Every person in
society should have the freedom to develop their personality with the support of the resources
available in that country.

Article 23: We all have the right to employment, to be free to choose our work, and to
be paid a fair salary that allows us to live and support our family. Everyone who does
the same work should have the right to equal pay, without discrimination. We have the
right to come together and form trade union groups to defend our interests as workers.
Article 24: Everyone has the right to rest and leisure time. There should be limits on working hours,
and people should be able to take holidays with pay.

Article 25: We all have the right to enough food, clothing, housing and healthcare for ourselves and
our families. We should have access to support if we are out of work, ill, elderly, disabled, widowed,
or can’t earn a living for reasons outside of our control. An expectant mother and her baby should
both receive extra care and support. All children should have the same rights when they are born.

Article 26: Everyone has the right to education. Primary schooling should be free. We should all be
able to continue our studies as far as we wish. At school we should be helped to develop our talents,
and be taught an understanding and respect for everyone’s human rights. We should also be taught to
get on with others whatever their ethnicity, religion, or country they come from. Our parents have the
right to choose what kind of school we go to.
Article 27: We all have the right to get involved in our community’s arts, music, literature and
sciences, and the benefits they bring. If we are an artist, a musician, a writer or a scientist, our
works should be protected and we should be able to benefit from them.

Article 28: We all have the right to live in a peaceful and orderly society so that these rights and
freedoms can be protected, and these rights can be enjoyed in all other countries around the world.

Article 29: We have duties to the community we live in that should allow us to develop as fully as
possible. The law should guarantee human rights and should allow everyone to enjoy the same
mutual respect.

Article 30: No government, group or individual should act in a way that would destroy the rights
and freedoms of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
