... Gross denials of human rights arising from discrimination
on grounds of race, religion, belief or expressions of opinion
outrage the conscience of mankind and endanger the foundations
of freedom, justice and peace in the world; ...
... Since human rights and fundamental freedoms are indivisible,
the full realization of civil and political rights without the
enjoyment of economic, social and cultural rights is impossible.
The achievement of lasting progress in the implementation of human
rights is dependent upon sound and effective national and international
policies of economic and social development; ...
... The aspirations of the younger generation for a better
world, in which human rights and fundamental freedoms are fully
implemented, must be given the highest encouragement. It is imperative
that youth participate in shaping the future of mankind; ...
... While recent scientific discoveries and technological advances
have opened vast prospects for economic, social and cultural progress,
such developments may nevertheless endanger the rights and freedoms
of individuals and will require continuing attention; ...
... Disarmament would release immense human and material resources
now devoted to military purposes. These resources should be used
for the promotion of human rights and fundamental freedoms. General
and complete disarmament is one of the highest aspirations of
all peoples; ...

to the principles enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human
Rights and to redouble their efforts to provide for all human
beings a life consonant with freedom and dignity and conducive
to physical, mental, social and spiritual welfare. ...
