International human rights law is a body of law that sets out the rights and freedoms that all human beings are entitled to. It is based on the principles of universality, indivisibility, interdependence, and non-discrimination.

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted by the United Nations in 1948, is the foundation of international human rights law. It sets out a comprehensive list of rights and freedoms that all human beings are entitled to. These rights include the right to life, liberty, and security of person; the right to freedom of thought, conscience, and religion; the right to freedom of expression; the right to education; and the right to health.
