# United Nations' Role in the Maintenance of Human Rights The United Nations has played a significant role in maintaining human rights since its inception. Here are some of its key achievements: * **Treaties:** The UN has adopted treaties like the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. * **Assistance:** The UN provides relief, medical aid, and nutritional supplies to impoverished countries. It also assists by providing housing and education. **Important Considerations:** * No person should be discriminated against based on their political, jurisdictional, or international status or limitations on their sovereignty. * Articles 3-21 address civil and political rights, while Articles 22-27 address economic, social, and cultural rights. Articles 28-30 cover the human rights of a social and international system.
