This certificate course introduces development workers, staff of community-based organisations and NGOs to economic, social, and cultural rights (ESC rights) and how these rights can be applied in their efforts to improve the lives of local communities. Participants will deepen their understanding of ESC rights within the international human rights system. In particular, they will learn about the international human rights framework to respect, protect, and fulfill rights and how it can be practically applied by members of community-based organisations to address ESC rights issues in their work. Participants will learn practical tools to help communities identify, address and claim their ESC rights.
