Human rights are constantly evolving throughout the human history. These were reflected in the ancient period through the Vedas, Babylonian Code of Hummurabi, the Bible, the Quran and the Analects of Confucious. In the modern period human rights were defined by Scottish philosopher John Locke, who advocated the theory of Natural Rights. After the end of the first world war, the League of Nations formed aimed at to achieve the protection of human rights was one of its goals. In the aftermath of the atrocities of second world war, there was increased concern for the social and legal protection of human rights as fundamental freedoms. Hence, the paper attempts how the UNO defined the concept of human rights and to conclude the various human rights treaties regarding the execution and protection of human rights. The paper also covered the various mechanisms which are working under the UNO in this regard.
