racism. In Asia the problem is poverty and beliefs. And in
the Middle East the problem is racism and religious
beliefs.

The main countries with human rights problems are in the
Middle East. In some countries, women aren’t even allowed to
drive! There are also smaller problems all over the world that
involve human rights. The UN is also involved because they
are trying to help these people without equal rights so that they
will have their rights. The people who make the rules in
countries so that not everyone has equal rights are involved
because they are the cause of the problem of people having
fewer rights than others.

The ones who are affected are the people who don’t have
human rights because of poverty or racism and many other

of their skin color or any other reason.

The Human Rights are the one side of a coin that gives
them their desire freedom and the another side is the

freedom…..
For Ex– If we have the human right to live safely, so it’s
also our responsibility not to suffer other life.

the search for equity between men in the world. His
promotion has led us to see each
other equally, but unfortunately there are still forms of
action that do not allow the free development of
the individual.
But not only that, but also a way of life, which
translates to freedom of
opinion, action, including achieving a peaceful interac
tion of individuals within a society.
