Description
Adopted by the General Assembly in its resolution 217 A (III) of December 10, 1948
Preamble
Considering that recognition of the inherent dignity of all members of the human family and their equal and inalienable rights constitutes the foundation of freedom, justice and peace in the world.
Considering that ignorance and contempt for human rights have led to acts of barbarism which revolt the conscience of humanity and that the advent of a world where human beings will be free to speak and believe, free from terror and misery, has been proclaimed as the highest aspiration of man.
Considering that it is essential that human rights be protected by a regime of law so that man is not forced, as a last resort, to revolt against tyranny and oppression.
Considering that it is essential to encourage the development of friendly relations between nations.
Considering that in the Charter the peoples of the United Nations have reaffirmed their faith in fundamental human rights, in the dignity and worth of the human person, in the equal rights of men and women, and have declared themselves determined to promote social progress and to establish better conditions of life in greater freedom.
Considering that Member States are committed to ensuring, in cooperation with the United Nations, universal and effective respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms.
Considering that a common understanding of these rights and freedoms is of the utmost importance to fully fulfill this commitment.
The General Assembly proclaims this Universal Declaration of Human Rights as the common ideal to be attained by all peoples and all nations so that all individuals and all organs of society, having this Declaration constantly in mind, endeavor, through teaching and education, to develop respect for these rights and freedoms and to ensure, through progressive national and international measures, their universal and effective recognition and application, both among the populations of the States Members themselves than among those of the territories placed under their jurisdiction.
