The Universal Declaration of Human Rights was written by the United Nations to protect all people everywhere. The student version describes Article 13 as the “Freedom to Move.” One main idea of the article is that everyone has the right to move around and live where they want to within their own country. Part 1 of Article 13 says people have the right to “freedom of movement and residence within the borders of each State.” Another main idea of Article 13 is that we have the freedom to travel. Part 2 of the Article says that every person has the right to “leave any country, including his own, and to return to his country.” Article 13 says that people have the right to move freely within their own country and between countries.
