Explanation
As part of the framework of human rights law, all human rights are characterized by three core principles: they are interdependent, interrelated, and indivisible. This tripartite formulation was formally solidified in the 1993 Vienna Declaration and Programme of Action, which states that the international community must treat human rights globally in a fair and equal manner, on the same footing, and with the same emphasis. The principle of indivisibility implies that rights cannot be ranked in a hierarchy; the improvement of one right facilitates the advancement of others, while the deprivation of one adversely affects the rest. Furthermore, these rights are considered mutually reinforcing, meaning that civil, political, economic, social, and cultural rights are linked in a holistic architecture where the fulfillment of one often depends upon the fulfillment of others [2].
