"All individuals possess inherent human rights, irrespective of their nationality, place of residence, gender, national or ethnic origin, color, religion, language, or any other distinctive status." Because these rights are linked, interdependent, and indivisible, everyone is entitled to them without prejudice. The articulation and assurance of universal human rights find manifestation through treaties, customary international law, general principles, and various other sources within the framework of international law. The present investigation extensively centers on exploring the impact of dietary components on the progression of chronic degenerative diseases, including coronary heart disease, cancer, and dental caries. Nutrition affects many areas of human function, including prenatal health and development, infection resistance, mental function, and athletic performance. The ongoing research aims to unravel the complex interaction between dietary determinants and general health. The growing convergence of nutritional science and molecular biology provides insights into how dietary components function at the cellular level and contribute to the many biochemical reactions in humans. Furthermore, nutrition includes the motivations behind people's eating choices, even when such decisions are regarded harmful despite opposing advice. The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) has officially approved the Voluntary Guidelines designed to facilitate the gradual fulfillment of the Right to Adequate Food within the context of national food security. These recommendations provide governments with practical support in implementing the right to adequate nourishment. Exploring legal options is critical for guaranteeing the correct application of healthcare and human rights legislation, which are critical for resolving rising difficulties in these sectors.

An Empirical Study on Human Values and Moral Values Regarding Adolescents

2023-11-18T06:32:08+00:00

Human values and moral values include the development of general knowledge, common sense, and problem-solving skills;
unity, cooperation, mutual understanding, and acceptance of differences among individuals; honesty, truthfulness, harmony, and outer peace among family and friends, neighbours, and countries; and giving time and effort to others. This research paper aims to access adolescents’ human and moral values (girls and boys between the ages of 10 and 19). In India, adolescents make up 21% of one-fifth of the total population. Nowadays, human values and moral values are decreasing rapidly in adolescents of this age. The researcher found that the primary cause of decreasing human values is the generation gap, increasing workload, and low wages in the corporate sector, and increasing human desires for earning more money leads to the processing of thoughts of terrorism or crimes in the minds of adolescents. They are influenced by what they see, what they read, and what they observe in society and peer groups. The researcher concludes that they need to learn human values and moral values like our ancestors did to build a good and ethical society. In the past, human values played an important role in societies and their cultural beliefs. Human and moral values are essential for the overall development of everyone. Adolescents today are vulnerable to health
issues due to their exploratory nature; their health issues and development problems at this age are related to their physical, mental, and emotional development, as well as their changing behaviour. Human values and moral values include the development of general knowledge, common sense, and problem- solving skills; unity, cooperation, mutual understanding, and acceptance of differences among individuals; honesty, truthfulness, harmony, and outer peace among family and friends, neighbours, and countries; and giving time and effort to others. Adolescents suffer at one time or another during their development.

Violence against Women with special reference to North East India

2023-11-07T09:23:00+00:00

Women make up around half of the world's population, yet they have not always been treated similarly to males or given the same privileges in society. The disparity between men and women is primarily caused by gender differences, customs, traditions, social attitudes, etc. Women have always been viewed as the weaker or inferior segment of society in traditional
patriarchal societies. In today's society, everyone has an equal right to survive, to experience equality, to receive justice, and to live in peace. In addition, the 1993 World Conference on Human Rights recognised that women's and girls rights are an essential component of universal human rights. Inequality is the main problem facing feminism today. It aids in our analysis of
social reality. In the post-independence age, women enjoy a significant status in North-East India. Even in rural and metropolitan areas, there have been noticeable shifts in the position and status of women. In this essay, an effort has been made to look at the methods for creating a society that values equality between the sexes. An effort has been made in this essay to conceptualise certain gender-specific violations as violations of human rights in the context of north-eastern India. As old as patriarchy, violence against women also exists. The more the government discusses reforming the violence act, the more it affects women economic inclusion and societal contribution. One cannot create a secure zone unless they are genuine to themselves and observe others with their own eyes.

Half Widows- The Silent Sufferers of Militancy War in Kashmir: An Empirical Study

2023-12-04T08:20:13+00:00

The concept of half-widows in Kashmir refers to women whose husbands have disappeared without a trace during the political conflict in the region. These women live in a state of limbo, not knowing whether their husbands are alive or dead, and facing social, economic, and psychological challenges due to their uncertain status. They are also not eligible for the same legal and social benefits as widows, as they cannot legally declare their husbands dead. This situation is further complicated by the lack of an effective legal system to address their plight and provide them with justice. The study conducted in District Srinagar of the state of Jammu and Kashmir reveals the social, economic, and psychological challenges faced by widows and half-widows of political conflict. The study emphasizes the urgent need for policy interventions to address the issues faced by these vulnerable women and provide them with social, economic, and legal support. The findings also underscore the importance of understanding the social dimensions of conflict and their impact on vulnerable populations.

Human Rights and Access to Telecommunication Services in the Eastern Cape, South Africa

2023-07-19T12:57:26+00:00

This paper unpacks challenges with access to universal telecommunication services in the Eastern Cape from the human rights angle. The purpose of universal telecommunication is to provide access to telecommunications infrastructure to everyone, regardless of location, poverty, age, gender, or other discriminating factors. Developing nations still need to work on achieving genuinely universal access, despite significant attempts to bridge the digital divide. Universal telecommunication access refers to providing telecommunication infrastructure in a geographical location such that people living in that area can communicate with people in other parts of the world. The digital divide is used for information inequality, gaps in information or knowledge, or computer and media literacy. Telecommunications reform in South Africa was accompanied by a strong policy commitment to achieving universal access and service (UAS). South Africa’s transition to democracy in 1994 and its subsequent engagement with telecommunications reform took place against the background of an increasing interest in UAS as a central sector reform issue and in the context of a racially discriminatory history of systematic denial of access to telecommunications services for the majority of the population. However, 29 years since democracy, the digital divide continues such that most disadvantaged communities cannot access networks, making it difficult to make calls in the case emergency. Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has become an essential instrument for realising human rights, and ensuring its accessibility must be a primary concern for all governments. ICT can considerably increase citizens’ access to various resources—such as information and essential services—vital to attaining human rights. The paper concludes that government should move with speed in addressing the digital divide.
