Summary: Save the Children has promoted rights-based
approaches through training workshops,
programme reviews, discussions, documents
and practical programme experimentation. All
of this work is based on a firm commitment to
human rights and the fundamental principles
of universality, indivisibility, accountability and
participation.
What is a rights-based approach? What is the added value of a rights-
based programme? How can rights-based programming be translated into
practical tools for planning, monitoring and evaluating projects and
programmes? These are some of the questions Save the Children and
other rights-based organisations have been asking themselves in recent
years.
This book draws on Save the Children’s experiences with rights-based
approaches in East and South-East Asia and to some extent on work in
South Asia and the Pacific. Save the Children has promoted rights-based
approaches through training workshops, programme reviews, discussions,
documents and practical programme experimentation. All of this work is
based on a firm commitment to human rights and the fundamental
principles of universality, indivisibility, accountability and participation.Owner: Joaquim Theispdf: www.crin.org/docs/resources/publications/hrbap/promoting.pdf
