    • Articles 3 to 11 consist of the rights of the individual, such as the right to life and freedom from slavery.  

    • Articles 12 to 17 are about the rights of the individual in civil and political society, such as freedom of movement, the right to privacy and the right to own personal property.  

    • Articles 18-21 are concerned with spiritual, public and political freedoms such as freedom of thought, freedom of choosing who we associate with and the right to take part in the governance of our country.  

    • Articles 22 to 27 consist of economic, social and cultural rights such as the right to work for a fair wage, access to education and healthcare, the right to celebrate our culture. 

    • Articles 27 to 30 bind the others together and lay out our duties to protect these universal human rights. Identify similarities and differences to these categories compared to those created by the students.
