HRBA is a conceptual framework for the development process that is based on international human rights standards. Such an approach integrates these standards and principles into program development processes to promote and protect human rights.
In this training, you will learn fundamental concepts of a Human Rights Based Approach and gain an understanding of its core principles. You will learn about the history and instruments of human rights and the role of the state to respect, protect and fulfill these rights. You will get the opportunity to explore how an HRBA approach can be implemented in the civic space, including your own programs. You will learn how to apply an HRBA approach, including how to go through the stages of the HRBA cycle, from the identification of a problem to research and analyses, and implementation of solutions.
