Human Rights

Welke mensenrechten ken je? Het zijn er 30!

Human Rights 

• Human rights are rights and freedoms for all people everywhere, regardless of their nationality, gender, heritage, race, religion, language or other status.  
  
  

• Human rights are protected and supported by international and national laws and treaties.

Het belangrijkste verschil tussen grondrechten en mensenrechten is territoriaal. Mensenrechten zijn universeel, zonder enige beperking. Een grondrecht daarentegen bestaat binnen een specifiek rechtssysteem, met de beperkingen die de wet toekent. Daarom domineert het concept van grondrechten in de staatswetten.
