Task+1+-+UN+Declaration+of+Human+RIghts

Miss Fedele Article 1.

 * All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood. ('The Universal Declaration of Human Rights' accessed from the UN website [])

I have chosen the 1st Article of the UN Declaration of Human Rights as my MOST important. I believe that if all of us instill this idea in ourself and others than adhering to the remaining human rights articles will follow quite easily. For example, if we believe that all human beings are born free and equal than it will be a given that all of us have the right to freely move across borders, that marriage is to be entered in equally and freely by both partners and every one will be able to speak freely and express thoughts and beliefs. I feel that this Article sets the tone for the remaining 29 Articles. If we ALL believed that everyone is born free and equal in DIGNITY and RIGHTS than perhaps poverty will be less of an issue as everyone will make it their business to ensure that the lives of others will be lived in dignity with the right to have basic possessions, food, sanitation etc, luxuries that many of us take for granted.
