Zana Muhsen (born 1965 in Birmingham, England) is a British author known for her book Sold: Story of Modern-day Slavery and its follow-up A Promise to Nadia. The books narrate the experiences that she and her sister Nadia (born 1966) went through after they were sold into marriage by their father, Muthanna Muhsen, a Yemeni émigré.
In the books and in interviews, Muhsen states that she and her sister had been sent to Yemen under the assumption that they were going on holiday to meet the paternal side of their family. Muhsen asserts that neither she nor her sister were aware of their father's plans, although her sister Nadia says that her father showed her a photograph of her future husband, Mohammed, in the UK, and that she knew she was going to be married. This story denounces the conditions of Yemen's women, who have to live their life under men control, treated with no dignity and where they don't even have the right of speak and to decide by theirselves.

Women in China have low participation rates as political leaders. Women's disadvantage is most evident in their severe underrepresentation in the more powerful, political, positions. At the top level of decision making, no woman has ever been among the nine members of the Standing Committee of the Communist Party's Politburo. Just 3 of 27 government ministers are women, and importantly, since 1997, China has fallen to 53rd place from 16th in the world in terms of female representation at its parliament, the National People's Congress, according to the Inter-Parliamentary Union.

Due to the patriarchal nature of traditional Armenian culture and society, women in Armenia are often expected to be virtuous and submissive, to safeguard their virginity until marriage, and assume primarily domestic tasks.  The role of women in Turkmenistan has never conformed to Western stereotypes about Muslim women.Although a division of labor exists and women usually are not visible actors in political affairs outside the home, Turkmen women have never worn a veil similar to that of the women of some of its neighboring countries. The history of Persia, Persian women (presently known as women in Iran), like Persian men, used make-up, wore jewellery and coloured their body parts . (Chiara B.)

Human rights are the basic rights and freedoms that belong to every person in the world, from birth until death. They apply regardless of where you are from, what you believe or how you choose to live your life.
They can never be taken away, although they can sometimes be restricted.These basic rights are b ased on values like dignity, fairness, equality, respect and independence. But human rights are not just abstract concepts, they are defined and protected by law .

Malala Yousafzai said she was "very proud" to represent her country Pakistan in winning the Nobel Peace Prize, and in being the youngest Nobel recipient at age 17.

"Along with that, I'm pretty certain that I'm also the first recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize who still fights with her brothers," she joked.

Yousafzai and Indian-born Kailash Satyarthi shared the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize - and the $1.1 million purse - and both spoke Wednesday at a ceremony in Oslo, Norway, about working together to achieve their goal of children's rights.

"It is not time to pity them," said Yousafzai, referring to the children in need. "It is time to take action, so it becomes the last time ... that we see a child deprived of education."
Watch part of Kailash Satyarthi's acceptance address.
Satyarthi said in his address that he represents the "sound of silence," the children who cannot speak for themselves. "They're all of our children. I have looked into their frightened and exhausted eyes. I've held their injured bodies and I've felt their broken spirits."

Satyarthi's said his life's mission is to help every child be free to be a child, "free to laugh and cry, free to play and learn, free to go to school and free to dream."

In North Korea you can't be against the Dictator 

# data[].attributes.body
In North Korea, people don't have any choice. The dictator controls the life of every single citizen: if someone thinks differently about the regime or the dictator, they are kept in prison and re-educated through forced labour (nearly 200 000 prisoners are kept in working camps) or publicly executed. This affects not only the single, but also the whole family. In North Korea is not 2018, it is 106, since the birth date of Kim Il-Sung. Election are held every five years and only one candidate is allowed, so people can't choose anyone else. There are just three TV channels, two of them only available in weekends. (Elisa)

Kailash Satyarthi is a renowned Indian child rights activist and the winner of Nobel Peace Prize in 2014. He is the founder of the Bachpan Bachao Andolan (BBA), (literally meaning, ‘Save Childhood Movement’) an organization dedicated towards the eradication of child labour and rehabilitation of the rescued former child workers. Child labour is a rampant problem in India where millions of young children are engaged in various forms of work instead of attending schools. Satyarthi has liberated over 80,000 child labourers since 1980. While in his mid twenties, he ditched a lucrative engineering career to work for the welfare of child labourers, many of whom were forced to work by their parents.

Childhood & Early Life

Kailash Satyarthi was born on 11 January 1954, in Vidisha, in a state in India. He noticed that some children did not go to school like he did and instead worked under harsh conditions to earn money.

Career

He started a journal called ‘The Struggle Shall Continue’ in 1980 in order to create awareness about the problem of child labour. The success of the BBA led to the creation of the South Asian Coalition on Child Servitude (SACCS) in 1989. SACCS has till date liberated several thousands of child labourers working in different industries. He has served as a member of the UNESCO’s Education for All.

Awards & Achievements

He received the Robert Kennedy Human Rights Award in 1995 in recognition of the significant contributions he had made to human rights in India. Satyarthi along with Pakistani teenage activist Malala Yousufzai won the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize "for their struggle against the suppression of children and young people and for the right of all children to education".

Today, women in Turkey still often have to cope with problems that emanate from the continuation of traditional patriarchal values and male-dominated relations in many aspects of life. They also often demand further improvement of existing laws in accordance with the changing standards of “women’s human rights” in contemporary Western societies. Existing social norms are now being questioned by the Turkish women’s movement which has been playing an important role in bringing women’s issues to the political and social agenda since the 1980s. Women’s issues, common to all societies and increasingly questioned in many, such as gender discrimination in education and the workplace; domestic violence; inadequate representation in decision making positions, etc., are now being questioned from the woman’s point of view in Turkey, too. To this end, new institutions such as women’s studies graduate programmes and women’s research centres in the universities have been established. These institutions together with women’s nongovernmental organizations help create a new type of visibility for women in the Turkish political and social scene. The guiding principle in evaluating women’s conditions and discussing women’s issues in Turkey today, is the globally accepted women’s human rights standards. The development of such a contemporary stand could be made possible only with the presence of legal rights guaranteed by the secular Turkish Republic and the cultural and social heritage of the Kemalist viewpoint.

He was a Pakistani boy who became a symbol of abusive child labour in the developing world.
Escape and  Activism
At the age of 10, Iqbal escaped his slavery, after learning that bonded labour was declared illegal by the Supreme Court of Pakistan. He was caught by police and brought back to Arshad, who told the police to tie him upside down if he tried to escape again. Iqbal escaped a second time and he attended the Bonded Labour Liberation Front  School for former child slaves and quickly completed a four-year education in only two years. Iqbal helped over 3,000 Pakistani children that were in bonded labour to escape to freedom and made speeches about child labour throughout the world.
He expressed a desire to become a lawyer to better equip him to free bonded labourers, and he began to visit other countries including Sweden and the United States to share his story, encouraging others to join the fight to eradicate child slavery.
In 1994 he received the Reebok Human Rights Award in Boston and in his acceptance speech he said: "I am one of those millions of children who are suffering in Pakistan through bonded labour and child labour, but I am lucky that due to the efforts of Bonded Labour Liberation Front , I go out in freedom I am standing in front of you here today. After my freedom, I join BLLF School and I am studying in that school now. For us slave children Ehsan Ullah Khan and BLLF have done the same work that Abraham Lincoln did for the slaves of America. Today, you are free and I am free too."
Death

"Iqbal Masih, a brave and eloquent boy who attended several international conferences to denounce the hardships of child weavers in Pakistan, was shot dead while he and some friends were cycling in their village of Muridke, near Lahore".

Iqbal was fatally shot by Ashraf Hero, a heroin addict, while visiting relatives in Muridke, Pakistan on 16 April 1995. He was 12 years old at the time.

Ridiculous restrictions on women’s rights in Asia

1. India (some parts): Road safety rules don’t apply to women. In some states of India, women are excepted from safety rules that mandate motorcycle passengers wear helmets -- an exemption that kills or injures thousands each year. Women’s rights advocates have argued the exemption springs from a culture-wide devaluation of women’s lives. Supporters of the ban say they’re just trying to preserve women’s carefully styled hair and make-up -- which isn’t exactly a feminist response.
2. Yemen: A woman is considered only half a witness. That’s the policy on legal testimony in Yemen, where a woman is not, to quote a 2005 Freedom House report, “recognized as a full person before the court.” In general, a single woman’s testimony isn’t taken seriously unless it’s backed by a man’s testimony or concerns a place or situation where a man would not be. And women can’t testify at all in cases of adultery, libel, theft or sodomy.
3. Saudi Arabia  : Women can’t vote... still. This is amazingly the case in Saudi Arabia, though a royal decree, issued in 2011, will let women vote in Saudi elections in 2015. Vatican City is the only other country that allows men, but not women, to vote.
4. Yemen: Women can’t leave the house without their husbands’ permission.Yemen, where this law remains in force, does allow for a few emergency exceptions, Begum says: if the woman must rush out to care for her ailing parents, for instance.
5. Saudi Arabia: Women can't drive.  (Kevin)
