Glossary term: Human rights

Simply by existing in the world, you are entitled to certain basic rights: your human rights. Everyone is born with the right to a life of equality, dignity and respect, free from discrimination. These rights are protected in law but not always realized. Our job at BCOHRC is to work on making all human rights a reality for all of British Columbia. For more see: What are human rights?
