Human Rights Based Approach

A Human Rights Based Approach (HRBA) to poverty reduction focuses on ensuring that all individuals have their basic rights respected, protected, and fulfilled. This means addressing the root causes of poverty by empowering people to claim their rights, such as access to education, healthcare, and fair treatment. Instead of viewing poverty merely as an economic issue, HRBA emphasizes that everyone deserves dignity and the opportunity to thrive. By integrating human rights principles into policies and programs, society can create a more just and equitable environment, ultimately leading to sustainable poverty reduction.
