The Humanist Committee on Human Rights (HOM) works to improve human rights, for all people, all over the world. We uphold international standards and values, such as:
- Human rights are universal: all people should have equal rights
- Human rights are indivisible: the value of one right does not supersede the value of any other
- Human rights are interdependent: one right can help to realise another right. An example – having the right to education influences the acceptance of the right to vote. The converse is also true – a person who has received an education is likely to realise the importance of voting.
