&lt;/a&gt; &lt;p&gt;Participants of the Asian &lt;a class=&quot;glossary-term&quot; href=&quot;glossary#term51&quot;&gt;&lt;acronym title=&quot;Human Rights: Privileges claimed or enjoyed by every human being by virtue of being human. The concept developed from the Roman idea of &amp;#039;natural law&amp;#039;. Early milestones in establishing human rights include the British Magna Carta (1215), Habeas Corpus Act (1679) and Bill of Rights (1689). None of these were as fundamentally comprehensive as the US Bill of Rights (1788) or France&amp;#039;s Declaration of the Rights of Man (1789). During the nineteenth century, human rights began to be enshrined in international law, best illustrated by the Geneva Conventions, a series of treaties which governed the humane treatment of civilians, soldiers and prisoners during times of war.
The UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights was adopted in 1948. It stated that people have the right to life, liberty and education; to freedom of movement, religion, association and information; to a nationality and to equality before the law. Many nations still deny their citizens basic rights. &quot;&gt;Human Rights&lt;/acronym&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Workshop, Thailand 1997&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/a&gt; &lt;p&gt;Participants of the &lt;a class=&quot;glossary-term&quot; href=&quot;glossary#term33&quot;&gt;&lt;acronym title=&quot;ICMICA: International Catholic Movement for Intellectual &amp;amp; Cultural Affaris&quot;&gt;ICMICA&lt;/acronym&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Asia Pacific Regional Workshop on &lt;a class=&quot;glossary-term&quot; href=&quot;glossary#term51&quot;&gt;&lt;acronym title=&quot;Human Rights: Privileges claimed or enjoyed by every human being by virtue of being human. The concept developed from the Roman idea of &amp;#039;natural law&amp;#039;. Early milestones in establishing human rights include the British Magna Carta (1215), Habeas Corpus Act (1679) and Bill of Rights (1689).

Many nations still deny their citizens basic rights. &quot;&gt;Human Rights&lt;/acronym&gt;&lt;/a&gt; and Ecologically &lt;a class=&quot;glossary-term&quot; href=&quot;glossary#term56&quot;&gt;&lt;acronym title=&quot;Sustainable Development: Ultimately, all economic development depends on the earth&amp;#039;s natural resource base. It is the primary biological production generated by photosynthesis that sustains the human race and virtually every other life form. Maintaining this biological productivity is therefore the key to sustainability. It is also crucial that the needs of the present are met without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. That is why sustainable development implies limits.

To be &amp;#039;sustainable&amp;#039;, development must meet human needs without depleting resources or irrevocably damaging the systems which produce those resources. Under present conditions, organic matter equivalent to 40%% of the primary production of the earth&amp;#039;s ecosystems is being consumed by humans. If the world population doubles humans will devour as much biological material as is produced each year. At this level of exploitation the quality of the environment and, consequently, of human life will quickly decline.

The World Commission on Environment and Development defines sustainable development as a &amp;#039;process of change in which the exploitation of resources, the direction of investments, the orientation of technological development and institutional change are all in harmony and enhance both current and future potential to meet human needs and aspirations&amp;#039;.
