Legal Instruments

Do you know that as a young person you have a number of rights?

Do you have an idea of what those rights are or know the laws and policies that protect your rights? Such laws and policies are what we call 'legal instruments'.
Unfortunately, children and women's rights are often violated because of the belief that they have no rights.
This session will help us have a clearer understanding of our rights as human beings and those legal instruments that protect our rights.

Read the story to learn more about situations in which you might have to stand up for your rights.
And in the chapters 'International', 'Regional' and 'National' you can find links and downloads with more information about your rights.
