The Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen is approved by the National Constituent Assembly of France #OTD in 1789.
The Declaration was initially drafted by the Marquis de Lafayette, but the majority of the final draft came from the Abbé Sieyès. Influenced by the doctrine of natural right, human rights are held to be universal: valid at all times and in every place. It became the basis for a nation of free individuals protected equally by the law. via nostr:npub1kvnpp3m60derhwpqwc09zhk3ehk48tr6agc6dk9z2vggu9sga28qpxhm73

I didn't know La Fayette played a role in the writing of the DDHC (I only know him as the traitor he his). Wikipedia in French doesn't say he made the first draft, but rather that he made one version of a Declaration that did not pass the vote of the Assemblée Constituante.
