The project “Right to integrity of the person” is the etwinning activity of the wider, ongoing, 2019-1-DE03-KA229-059742_4 “Democracy Matters” project, funded under the Erasmus+ programme.
The project aims to provide students from participating countries with a common basic training on the specific right of human dignity and integrity of the human-being, to prepare them for a greater awareness of the topic, in view the international meeting already planned to be held in Italy in early 2021.
Following the historical path that from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948) led to the drafting of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union (2000), we will discuss how the recognition of the dignity of human beings is not only a fundamental right, but constitutes the very foundation of rights, freedom, and justice. We will discuss as well the right that every human being has that their physical and mental integrity are respected.
