ROLE OF INTERNATIONAL NON GOVERNMENTAL ORGANISATIONS IN PROMOTION & PROTECTION OF HUMAN RIGHTS

Raunaq Bagade

Abstract :

Fundamental questions relating to the concept of human rights today are, whose rights do we talk about- of the individual or of the society? Who gives, protects and promotes human rights? It must also be noted that the issue of human rights arises only when there is a denial or violation or imminent infringement of such rights. As it is evident human rights received much attention after the Second World War, where millions of people lost their lives. The devastation of life caused by the Second World War made members of the United Nations (UN) to take necessary measures to prevent such recurrence of human rights abuse. Ever since, human rights has over the years become an important issue in the international community as well as in the political discourse of almost every nation in the world. In this context understanding the role of human rights nongovernmental organisations (HRNGOs) in protecting and promoting human rights is important.
