The belief that everyone, by virtue of her or his humanity, is entitled to certain human rights is fairly new. Its roots, however, lie in earlier tradition and documents of many cultures; it took the catalyst of World War II to propel human rights onto the global stage and into the global conscience.

Throughout much of history, people acquired rights and responsibilities through their membership in a group – a family, indigenous nation, religion, class, community, or state. Most societies have had traditions similar to the "golden rule" of "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." The Hindu Vedas, the Babylonian Code of Hammurabi, the Bible, the Quran (Koran), and the Analects of Confucius are five of the oldest written sources which address questions of people’s duties, rights, and responsibilities.

In addition, the Inca and Aztec codes of conduct and justice and an Iroquois Constitution were Native American sources that existed well before the 18th century. In fact, all societies, whether in oral or written tradition, have had systems of propriety and justice as well as ways of tending to the health and welfare of their members.

Owing to the crisis in Libya and the stream of refugees coming to Tunisia Finland will support Tunisian civil society through bilateral funding. In addition, other possible forms of support are under
consideration.
With the support from the Ministry for Foreign Affairs, the Finnish Red Cross will supply protective sheltering material, tents and halls to be assembled, meeting the needs of over 4,000 refugees. The International Federation Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) is planning emergency accommodation in Tunisia for at least 15,000 people.
