UNICEF and Other Human Rights Efforts Protecting Individuals

International issues are among the most important in today's news: students will not be prepared for the future if they do not understand the concerns of the world's citizens regarding human rights. For sixty years, the UN has been working to guarantee rights for all people. These include the right to vote, the right to a decent standard of living, the right to political freedom, the right not to suffer torture or cruel punishment and the right to be free from discrimination. This book will serve as a useful and understandable guide to this complex but vital topic.
