70 years ago today, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was created as a way to stop the horrors of Nazi Germany from ever happening again. In this lecture, given to mark the anniversary, Professor Rosa Freedman explains what human rights are, why they matter, and the challenges we face in ensuring that individuals have their fundamental rights protected.
Rosa Freedman is Professor of Law, Conflict and Global Development in the University of Reading’s School of Law.
