One of the seven core principles of Catholic Social Teaching involves "Rights and Responsibilities".
People have basic rights and responsibilities because of their human dignity which reflects the fact that they have been created in God's image. Catholic teaching emphasizes that people have a right to life and to the basic necessities that provide quality to life: food, shelter, health care, education and employment. We are called to respect the rights of others and to seek the common good.
