Abstract
Human rights are the foundation of human existence and coexistence. Human rights are universal, indivisible and interdependent. Human rights are what make us human. They are the principles by which we create the sacred home for human dignity. [Message by Kofi Annan, Secretary-General of the United Nations, on the fiftieth anniversary year of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights 10 December 1997]
