We have the right to freedom of association. No one may be compelled to belong to an association.

We have the right of equal access to public service in the country we live in.

We have the right to education. Technical and professional education shall be made generally available and higher education shall be equally accessible to all on the basis of merit.

We, as a members of society, have the right to social security and is entitled to realization, through national effort and international co-operation and in accordance with the organization and resources of each State, of the economic, social and cultural rights indispensable for our dignity and the free development of our personality.

Nothing in the UN Human Rights Declaration may be interpreted as implying for any State, group or person any right to engage in any activity or to perform any act aimed at the destruction of any of our rights and freedoms set forth by the United Nations Human Rights Declaration.

We are calling on all people of conscience, freedom of choice supporters, religious freedom, civil liberties and human rights groups around the world to support our religious, cultural, civil , and human right to wear head cover in public schools and public institutions.

We urge the United Nation to step in and take an action against any government that passes a ban against veiled women or head covered men.
