Human rights

This list of human rights terms is partly based on the Royal Commission’s glossary for Hearing 18, which also contains some more terms and acronyms from that hearing. See also our issues page related to hearing 18, which explains more about human rights and links to more information.

Because the CRPD covers so many of the issues that the Royal Commission is looking into, we have already defined some related terms in other sections of the Jargon Buster. You can also use the search bar at the top of the main Jargon Buster page to look up specific things.
