LAWS ON HUMAN RIGHTS
The Constitution of the Republic of the Philippines declares that the State values the dignity of
every human, person and guarantees full respect for human rights. It prohibits the use of torture, force,
violence, threat, intimidation, or any other means which vitiate the free will and mandates the
compensation and rehabilitation of victims of torture or similar practices and their families. (Sec.2,Art.11

Human rights are rights inherent to all human beings, regardless of race, sex, nationality, ethnicity,
language, religion, or any other status. Human rights include the right to life and liberty, freedom from
slavery and torture, freedom of opinion and expression, the right to work and education, and many
more. Everyone is entitled to these rights, without discrimination. (United Nations)

C. LESSON WRAP-UP
Summary:
Human rights in the Philippines are protected by the Constitution of the Philippines, to make
sure that persons in the Philippines are able to live peacefully and with dignity, safe from the abuse of
any individuals or institutions, including the state. In the Philippines, we have RA 10368, Human Rights
Victims Reparation and Recognition Act of 2013.
The concept of "human rights," in the context of the Philippines, pertains mainly (but is not
limited) to the civil and political rights of a person living in the Philippines. Human rights are a justified
set of claims that set moral standards to members of the human race, not exclusive to a specific
community or citizenship.[5] Membership in the human race is the sole qualification to obtain these
rights.
