Human rights

Fifty years after the ratification of the United Nations Charta on human rights, millions of humans suffer from privation of these rights. To the fundamental rights belong life, freedom and security, equality before the law, protection under the law against discrimination, access to education, and clean living-conditions. Corruption, authoritarian structures, impunity and war are just few among many reasons why human rights are not respected. The engagement of the DRA takes place on many levels to observe the respect of these rights, to disclose any violation and protect the defenders of human rights in their action.
