Several key pieces of legislation and international agreements protect human rights, including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) adopted by the United Nations in 1948, which sets out fundamental rights and freedoms for all individuals. Additionally, regional treaties like the European Convention on Human Rights and the American Convention on Human Rights provide legal frameworks for the protection and enforcement of human rights within specific regions. National laws, such as anti-discrimination acts and civil rights legislation, further safeguard individuals against violations within their respective countries.
