It is hoped that this web site illustrates the universality, indivisibility, and interconnectedness of human rights. As visitors to this site move from page to page, they will see just how difficult it is to discuss one rights issue without evoking a series of related rights. They will also see quite clearly that rights are the birthright of all the world's peoples, regardless of their nationality, race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, abilities, class or profession.

Visitors can search this site based on their interests in what we call "communities in struggle" -- such as women, workers or refugees -- or "objects of struggle" -- such as education, health, peace or development.

We urge visitors to our pages to download, adapt and use the human rights framework and these materials in their efforts for economic and social justice. Put human rights to work!
