[3 October 2007] - This Primer is based on the views and experiences of development practitioners on linking human rights and the MDGs in their work. It provides basic guidance on how to make the link and explores the key questions that practitioners will face in doing so. The primary audience is the non-human rights expert. The Primer responds to the request from development practitioners, expressed in a virtual discussion on the subject, for guidance in this area. The content is based on the input and observations from an e-discussion and the deliberations of a ‘Working Group Meeting’ held in Oslo in September 2006. New Web Portal The HuriLink WebPortal has been developed in conjunction with the Primer. It is an on-line tool which presents the experiences and challenges that practitioners face when striving to link human rights and the Millennium Development Goals in their work. It is a resource that has been developed by practitioners, for practitioners. It features lessons learned, common challenges, tools and resources. Further information
