A human right is a person’s obligation to ensure he or she lives a happy, secure, and innocuous life to the best of his or her abilities. A person has the liberty to desire such a life and fight for it. He or she is free to determine their conception of happiness. Others may suggest and influence another person’s definition of happiness but, ultimately, it is a person’s free will to establish what makes him or her happy.

What are human rights? Human rights are the rights one has simply by virtue of being human. They are, essentially the highest moral rights any human being can have.

DEFINE HUMAN RIGHTS Human rights are rights that can be claimed by all human beings, no matter what nationality, place of residence, national or ethnic background, gender, colour of their skin, religion and beliefs or any other statues.

Introduction First question which needed to be answered from where do universal rights begin. And where does term women’s human rights came from? What it mean? “The term "women's human rights" has served as a locus for praxis, that is, for the development of political strategies shaped by the interaction between analytical insights and concrete political practices.” From the 1980s and 1990s, women's movements round about the world formed system and alliances to give greater perceptibility both to
For my Human Rights through a camera lens essay, I picked seven-year-old Indira from Katmandu, Nepal and fourteen-year-old Irkena from the Kaisut Dessert, in Kenya.

granted in America, but in Ethiopia, these basic rights are denied and restricted; and the end result of trying to fight for it is arbitrary arrests, detentions, and beatings from the Ethiopian authorities.
