| Description |
|
This manual is intended for U.S. social justice advocates, provides concrete steps for integrating international human rights principles into their work. First, this manual helps advocates frame the issues on which they work in terms of international human rights standards. Next, the manual helps advocates identify human rights-based strategies they can use to ensure these rights are fulfilled for all people. This manual is designed to accompany the training Discover Human Rights: A Human Rights Approach to Social Justice. It also provides participants with a reference to use when they return to their organisations or
communities. Using a participatory methodology, this manual combines short presentations with interactive activities including large group discussions, small group work, and role plays. In addition, the manual incorporates case study examples of best practices drawn from the experiences of social justice organisations around the United States and provides tools such as organisational assessments and implementation models to help organisations create an action plan for using human rights principles in their operations and advocacy work. |
