The recognition that the persistence of poverty is closely linked
to the denial of human rights has propelled rights-based approaches
into the policy and practice of many development NGOs, UN bodies
and aid agencies. This book presents the practical experiences of
development practitioners who have tried to apply a rights-based
approach in their work. Its aim is to increase understanding of the
approach by drawing on bottom-up insights, and to identify what
difference a rights-based approach makes in practice. What is the
'value added' of a rights-based approach? What difficulties and
tensions arise? The case-studies span development, humanitarian
relief and conflict resolution. The book concludes that there is
potential not only for human rights to reinvent development, but
for development to reinvent human rights.
