Abstract: Human Rights legislation is used broadly, whereas Humanitarian law is utilized in a more limited context. Human rights are invoked by individuals to ensure their existence in both peacetime and wartime contexts, whereas humanitarian law is applied during armed conflict to protect the rights of individuals in war zones. Human rights are universally recognized ethical principles that establish benchmarks for human conduct and are frequently protected by national and international legislation. Human rights are inherent entitlements possessed by all individuals, regardless of race, gender, nationality, ethnicity, language, religion, or any other status. Distinguishing between human rights and humanitarian law is challenging due to their interconnection; humanitarian law constitutes a subset of human rights law and is also a component of international law, while being associated with humanitarian sentiments during times of crisis. This study will examine the relationship amid human rights and humanitarian law.
