Human rights are rights that belong to all human beings, whatever our nationality, place of residence, sex, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, language, or any other status. We are all equally entitled to human rights, without discrimination.
Universal human rights are often expressed and guaranteed by law, in the form of international treaties and other sources of international law. International human rights law lays down obligations of Governments to act in certain ways or to refrain from certain acts, in order to promote and protect human rights and fundamental freedoms of individuals or groups.
Human rights cover civil and political rights (such as the right to life, equality before the law and freedom of expression), economic, social and cultural rights (such as the rights to work, social security and education), and collective rights (such as the rights to development and self-determination). These different categories of rights are all indivisible, interrelated and interdependent.
Human rights laws
The key text for human rights is the Universal Declaration on Human Rights, created in 1948. <read it here>The core human rights treaties are:
The International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), which Cambodia ratified in 1992
The International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR) which Cambodia ratified in 1992
The Convention Against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (CAT) which Cambodia ratified in 1992
The International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (ICERD) which Cambodia ratified in 1993
The Convention on the Elimination of All forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW) which Cambodia ratified in 1992
The Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) which Cambodia ratified in 1992
The Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CMW) which Cambodia has signed but not ratified
The Convention on the Rights of Migrant Workers (CMW) which Cambodia has not ratified
The Convention on Enforced Disappearances (ICED) which Cambodia has not ratified
All States have ratified at least one, and 80% of States have ratified four or more, of the core human rights treaties, reflecting consent of States which creates legal obligations for them and giving concrete expression to universality. Some fundamental human rights norms enjoy universal protection by customary international law across all boundaries and civilizations.

Some fundamental human rights norms enjoy universal protection by customary international law across all boundaries and civilizations.
Human rights should not be taken away, except in specific situations and according to due process. For example, the right to liberty may be restricted if a person is found guilty of a crime by a court of law.
Rights and Responsibilities
Human rights entail both rights and responsibilities. States assume responsibilities and duties under international law to respect, to protect and to fulfill human rights. States must refrain from interfering with or curtailing the enjoyment of human rights, must protect individuals and groups against human rights abuses, and must take positive action to facilitate the enjoyment of basic human rights. Each human being also has both rights and responsibilities. While we are entitled our human rights, we should also respect the human rights of others.

May 2, 2016 – We, the undersigned human rights and other civil society organisations, condemn in the strongest terms the politically-motivated charging of six human rights defenders from a Cambodian human rights group, the country’s National Election Committee (NEC) and the United Nation’s Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (UNOHCHR). The targeting of these individuals, five of whom were sent to pre-trial detention today, is the latest escalation in a far-reaching government assault on civil society ahead of upcoming local and national elections, and is a clear reprisal for support provided by rights workers in a politically-sensitive case.

Transparency International, the global anti-corruption organisation, calls on the authorities in Cambodia to respect the space for civil society and end harassment and intimidation of activists.
The current situation was trigged when activists from a well-known human rights organisation (ADHOC) and a Deputy Secretary General of the National Election Committee (NEC) were summoned for questioning and later detained by the Anti-Corruption Unit. They were then transferred to the court and charged for allegedly bribing a witness in a highly politicised case.
A Deputy Secretary General of the NEC and one officer from the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights were also charged as accomplices in bribing the witness.
“TI is seriously concerned about increasing allegations of political interference and intimidation of human rights and anti-corruption activists. The Anti-Corruption Unit should not be used in such a way that intimidates and silences the voice of civil society activists. This sends the wrong message, not only to the people of Cambodia but to the rest of the world. Civil society needs to be protected so that it can support citizens,” said Elena Panfilova, Vice Chair of Transparency International.
If convicted the activists could face between 5 – 10 years prison sentences. A decision is expected this week.
On 28 April 27 non-governmental organisations (NGOs) signed a joint statement calling on the authorities to cease
