Human rights also guarantee people the means necessary to satisfy their basic needs, such as food, housing, and education, so they can take full advantage of all opportunities. Finally, by guaranteeing life, liberty, equality, and security, human rights protect people against abuse by those who are more powerful.

Answer: Defending Human Rights is essential because we are human, we need basic needs that can be met in everyday life.

Explanation: Without human rights, we wouldn’t be able to do over half of the things we do, Human rights not only protects our will to be able to express ourself but also freedom to practice any religion you choose, and to express yourself how you choose.
