Human Rights Education in 21st Century Shireesh Pal Singh

Human Rights are considered to be the universal phenomenon because rights have been taken in our society over the years. It is a realization that without Human Rights we cannot live as human beings. They include all fundamental freedoms and are based on mankind's demand for a life in which the inherent dignity and worth of each human being will receive respect and protection. It is possible only if we respect and take care of the needs and rights of one another. Apprehension for human rights has been appeared as a force for society owing to the readiness of international organization just to intensify the awareness of human rights. The need for human rights education has been emphasized in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other international documents and treatise. An emerging harmony signifies that Human Rights Education can add to construct healthy society.
