Consider two possible rights:
(1) The right to complete freedom of movement.
(2) The right to private personal space free of other people
On the face of things, neither of these require anybody to take actions. Nevertheless, one cannot fully exercise (1) without violating (2) and vice versa.

Also, the first right seems more like a positive right guaranteeing an entitlement to do or have access to something.
