The Universal Declaration promises to all the:

Economic, Social, Political, Cultural, and Civic rights

o underpin a life free from want and fear

o not a reward for good behavior

o not country specific, or particular to a certain era or


social group

Major international human rights documents were


developed to encapsulate the details of the broad strokes
embodied in the UHDR.

Philippines – signatory to major international HR


instruments, thus duty-bound to enact domestic laws that
mirror instruments:

Ex: Magna Carta of Women, Magna Carta of People with


Disabilities, Anti-Torture Act of 2009, etc.












In principle, the young people and
children’s sector is rich with policies that
protects and promotes their best interest.
The bigger challenge lies on increasing the
young key people’s awareness about these
policies and how to navigate it.
