Rights

As a human being, you have rights. These are things that everyone should have, like being treated fairly, having the freedom to express your thoughts and beliefs, and being safe from harm. These rights ensure everyone gets a fair chance to live a good and happy life.

If you are under 18, you also have an extra set of rights called the UNCRC that sets out all the rights you’re entitled to and what adults and governments must do to ensure you enjoy all these rights.

If you want to know more about your rights or are worried that you are being denied your rights, you could try speaking to a trusted adult or contacting us on the Meic helpline. 

You could also try some of these services for information or support:

We have lots of blogs on Meic. These are some of the ones that are about rights:
