Humanity went through a dark era during the rule of imperial systems, where the value of the individual citizen was measured solely by their loyalty and submission.

With the philosophical and political evolution of the social contract, humanity transitioned to a new phase built upon the concept of citizenship based on a set of rights and responsibilities.

In our geographical context, this is further supported by the roots of our culture and the teachings of our religion.

Thus, we believe that the citizen has rights guaranteed by the state, including the right to a dignified life, honorable work, and freedom that does not infringe upon the freedom of others.

We believe in the value of the individual citizen and the sanctity of the human being, as a great sign of God, into whom He breathed of His spirit, and whom He honored above other creatures.

He raised the status of the human and preserved their dignity and rank.

We affirm the value of every citizen, regardless of their religion or conviction.

All are equal under citizenship and the nation’s roof in rights, duties, and freedoms.

They are distinguished by their beneficial work and service to the homeland.

They excel in what they produce and contribute.

We believe that every citizen who holds Syrian nationality has rights and duties.

These are owed without any discrimination based on gender, religion, ethnicity, regional origin, or tribal affiliation.

We believe it is the duty of the state to secure and safeguard the rights of each citizen.

Any failure or negligence in doing so causes direct harm to the foundation and structure of the state.

We believe that the citizen's right is inviolable and is not granted as a favor.

Exploiting the provision of rights during electoral campaigns or within partisan alignments is a criminal act that demands accountability and prosecution.

We identify a set of essential rights that must protect the life of the citizen within their country.

In return, the citizen must respect the state's rights and fulfill their duties.

This forms a genuine national partnership between the nation and the citizen.

We believe that the state's failure to protect its citizens’ rights often precedes the citizen's failure to fulfill their obligations.

Neglecting those rights by the state is a betrayal of the citizen, while the citizen's failure is misjudgment and poor conduct.

We believe that the citizen has political rights that are fundamental.

These begin with the right to express opinions and opposing views, extend to candidacy and nomination, include voting, and reach leadership in political life or the creation of political blocs, whether loyalist or opposition.

We believe that the citizen has full economic rights, including the right to work and free enterprise, and the right to own property and wealth.

We believe that the citizen has an essential right to education at all levels, up to university.

This right must be equal for the rich and the poor, and for both urban and rural citizens.

We believe that the citizen has a binding right to healthcare.

This includes medical care, access to medicine and treatment, and ends with the right to possess the necessary health insurance.

We believe that the citizen has the right to adopt a religion, to change their religion, or to have no religion at all.

The state is obliged to protect all of them equally without discrimination.

We believe that the citizen has the right to live a dignified life without restriction on their person or limitation of their role, as long as they operate within the framework of a freely elected legal system and within the bounds of legislative authority.

We believe that the citizen has the right to form an independent family, and that proper conditions must be established to support this family in a civilized manner.

We reject any idea or project aimed at diminishing individual freedom or limiting it to certain groups while excluding others.

This applies whether done through vague laws or in unofficial, hidden ways.

We call on the media to play its role in protecting the boundaries of citizens’ rights from violation and erosion.

The media must create space to raise awareness of these rights, warn against threats to them, and protect citizens from their manipulation or suppression.

It must also uphold the citizen’s right to influence media content, preventing it from being directed for narrow or private agendas.

We believe that every citizen has the right to live freely, honorably, and with dignity in their homeland.

This must make them proud of their belonging so that they neither sell their identity nor seek to replace it with another.
