I chose N.2 because i feel that everyone should have rights, no matter what race, sex, language, religion, political or any other opinion. It also says that all people are entitled the rights in this declaration.

I choose N.3 because I think that everyone deserves to get peaceful life just like every country else, ad I found a solution is treat others respect with honor and knowing other's feelings.

UDHR have 30 articles, and I chose article 24. It says: "Everyone has the right to rest and leisure, including reasonable limitation of working hours and periodic holidays with pay." It mean everyone must rest enough. And the reason why I chose is because my country sometimes don't obey this article and some people dies. And here's the source: https://www.ohchr.org/en/human-rights/universal-declaration/translations/english

Q1 and Q2

Universal Declaration of Human Rights | United Nations

We have 30 human(children) rights in total. I chose No.１３,"Everyone has a right to freedom of a movement and the residence within the borders of each state. and everyone has a right to leave the country, including his own, and return to his country." 　

Reason Why I chose No.13 is that even we are about 75 million people around the world, 85% of people couldn't receive human rights. it is mostly because of political power. another supportive evidence is that most countries fail to protect citizen's basic rights.

I chose article 23: Everyone, without any discrimination, has the right to equal pay for equal work, because when every one does equal work and have a equal pay it will also prevent conflicts. For example, when people gets discriminated because of skin color ( black and white) , people won’t think its fair and they will start to protest. The solution is don’t discriminate others and treat all the people fairly.

I chose article 20 n.1

Because i believe every being and creature in the world was born innocent.there should be peace into everyone and only if u did something bad ,its would change.People should get the chance to be able to have peace and do what they want in life.

2025-08-29 06:39:46 UTC

I choose the N.20. Because, I know that people usually get social pressured or forced to join things they don’t want. For example, there are people who are very religious, like very into the religion. And then they sometimes force or peer pressure others to join too. To stop this I believe people should still be able to share what they are in, but shouldn’t pressure others.

I choose #2 : everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms set forth in this Declaration, without distinction of any kind, such as race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status. Furthermore, no distinction shall be made on the basis of the political, jurisdictional or international status of the country or territory to which a person belongs, whether it be independent, trust, non-self-governing or under any other limitation of sovereignty. I chose this one because I don't think you should be judged for who you are, sometimes, people are judged not for behavior but for things that they cannot change. I think that everyone should be treated without discrimination.

-Aretha

That everyone should treated the same way even though you don’t like them

Every one has the right to have things needed for living

2025-08-29 06:46:22 UTC

I chose 25 N.1 because i think everyone in the world deserves to have food, shelter, cloth and water .nobody should be desperate for food and shelter.people have to suffer a lot be cause of that.even though this is a hard problem to solve for society and will break societies rules.We could choose to help fund shelters and raise awareness that people in the world are having hunger,living,clothing and comfort issues and even more! Therefore,thats why i chose article 25 N.1.

I choose Article 19. Because I think people need to say our opinion freely. To talk there opinions

i chose article 20 because i believe that every person should not go through war and the pain of being killed especially innocent people. We can find out a way to fix all of our wars. that way, nobody would be killed. Even "bad" people should have the right to live through peace

People has a right of living adequate for the health and well-being

2025-08-29 06:59:49 UTC

I choose article 25 since I assume that everyone needs to help people even when they are the deficient of nutrition, when they got disease or they lost their job no matter what. If I feel that helping a person who is inadequate of money, nutrition, food, water, home, medical care is the troublesome, the world would be getting worse. If it gets worse, it would be impossible to achieve the SDGs, or homeless people gets more intensifying. Also, people would get less. How do you think that it gets reduced? I think that we need to increase the developing country. For instance, the rich country gives the money to the person who can't have a money. Maybe... we need to donate the money. That is the solution what I imagine.

People should have equal pays and no discrimination.

Question:

2025-08-29 07:12:45 UTC

if every presedent /leader from each country decides to not have war or start wars ,woukd that mean world peace?!?

I chose Article 3: "Everyone has the right to live, liberty and the security of person". That's because people have the right to have a nice and healthy life to live for. So a small solution to fix this worldwide problem is to be able to give everyone a chance to have a normal life; like some good food and stuff. They should also have the ability to have their own right to report or make decisions on their own living. So that's my solution. (Shortened version).

2025-08-29 07:12:53 UTC

Main Article: Article 3

Extra Info: Everyone should be able to have resources to live

Scroll down the link to find the article.

This is the shortened version.

To make this solution better, people should indulge into less materials and resources and save some for the others. Therefore enough for everyone and all. In conclusion, this is the reason why I chose article: Article 3.
