HISTORY OF HUMAN RIGHTS
• In 539 BC, the army of Cyrus the Great, the first king
of ancient Persia, conquered the city of Babylon.
But a huge achievement for humanity was his next
actions. He freed the slaves, declared that all people
had the right to choose their own religion, and
proclaimed racial equality.
These and other decrees were written in cuneiform
script on a cylinder of baked clay.
• Known today as Cyrus ' cylinder, this ancient
document is considered the world's first charter of
human rights. It has been translated into all six
official languages of the United Nations, and its
provisions are reflected in the first four articles of the
Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

them (human right) want to hurt others. But
now, in addition to the
moral sanctions of one's
own conscience or that of
others, most countries
around the world have laws
that oblige governments to
respect the fundamental
rights of their citizens,
even if they may not want
to.

Economic, social and cultural rights
• The International Covenant on Economic, Social and Culture
Right entered into force in 1976. The Committee on
Economic, Social and Culture Rights is the body of
18 independent experts that monitors implementation of
the Covenant by its States parties. Its Optional Protocol
entered into force in 2013. The human rights that the
Covenant seeks to promote and protect include
• the right to work in just and favourable conditions;
• the right to social protection, to an adequate standard of living
and to the highest attainable standards of physical and mental
well-being;
• the right to education and the enjoyment of benefits of cultural
freedom and scientific progress.

Who monitors the observance of human rights?
We all need to keep an eye on
this. There are laws, both national
and international, that restrict the
freedom of action of Governments
against their citizens, but if no one
points out to them that their
actions violate international
norms, Governments can continue
to violate them with impunity.
Each of us, as individuals, must
not only respect the rights of
others in our daily lives, but also
carefully monitor the actions of
our own and non-our
Governments. Rights protection
systems exist so that we can all
take advantage of them.

How can I protect my rights?
Try to draw the attention of others to the fact
that your rights have been violated; demand
that they be respected. Let the other party know
that you know they have no right to treat you in
this way. Highlight relevant articles in the
Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the
Convention on Human Rights, or other
international instruments. If there are relevant
laws in your own country, please refer to them
as well. Inform others about what has happened:
send a message to the press, write to your MP
and head of state, and inform non-governmental
organizations working on human rights about it.
Ask them for advice. If possible, talk to a lawyer.
Try to make the government aware of your
actions. Let him know that you are not going to
back down. Demonstrate the support you can
count on. Finally, if all else fails, you can go to
court.
