You have human rights - I have human rights
But what ARE human rights, and where do they come from
After World War 2, in 1948, world leaders agreed a Declaration whose purpose was to prevent war and point the way to peace, wellbeing and happiness for all of the world’s people. This was not a new project. It had perhaps started with the Declaration by Cyrus the Great of Persia in 523 BCE when he freed the slaves and allowed people to follow their own religion, and the steps toward the Universal Declaration on Human Rights can be traced through the next two thousand years.
Peaceful Planet provides education that empowers, enhances and activates individuals and communities to implement their human rights. Recognition of the dignity and value of every human being is the foundation of human rights. This website explores the elements of human dignity and the temptations that can lead to its violation. It also provides education designed to develop practical capability and help rebuild human systems, relationships and wellbeing. We can be made to feel broken and powerless by the bad deeds or neglect of others, but we can shape our lives by gaining and applying knowledge and certain principles of life.
