Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The power and ability to think, act, and communicate without hindrance or restraint is known as freedom. Freedoms are frequently incorporated as foundations of law in national charters and constitutions. 

The law can also impose various restrictions on liberties. Individual freedoms frequently clash, requiring interpretation to identify which freedom is paramount in each case. The following are some examples of freedom you should know about.

Inalienable Right To Life

The fundamental right to life.

Human Dignity Is A Fundamental Human Right.

This is the right to physical, psychological, and social well-being and self-determination.

Individual Integrity

This is the right to have complete control over one’s body, mind, and life. This refers to the right to informed consent for medical treatment and other problems concerning human body respect.

The Right To Safety

This is the ability to develop resilience to damage and risk. This is defined as taking adequate precautions to safeguard yourself, your family, and your possessions.

Privacy

The ability to live parts of your life without being observed or recorded.

The Freedom To Marry And Start A Family

The freedom to marry whomever you want, have children and raise them.

Freedom Of Expression

The ability to express oneself without fear of retaliation, censorship, or legal consequences.

Freedom From Slavery And Bondage

By abolishing slavery and servitude, people subjected to such atrocities are freed.

Freedom Of Movement

The ability to move around freely. This necessitates sufficient public space that is open to all. The right to choose your domicile, travel abroad, emigrate, and repatriate is all part of freedom of movement.

Culture

Children’s Rights

The right to protection, care, and the freedom to express themselves and have their opinions taken into account per their age and maturity are among children’s rights. Children have the right to an education, the freedom to play, and the opportunity to spend time with both parents unless it is in the child’s best interests.

Senior Citizens’ Rights

The right to live a dignified and self-sufficient life in old age.

Persons With Disabilities’ Rights

People with disabilities have the right to independence, social and occupational integration, and community engagement.

Affirmed Status

Right To Refrain From Incriminating Oneself

The right to remain silent and withhold any information could jeopardize a legal case.

Multiple types of freedom account for the way human behavior evolves. For instance, children’s rights, rights to democracy, and property rights have played a key role in creating legal changes for the new generation. 

The freedom of the marginalized has been championed by many non-profit and human rights organizations. Some of which include Amnesty International and Save The Children.
