rights-based advocacy

Rights-based advocacy focuses on promoting and protecting the fundamental rights of individuals and groups, emphasizing that everyone deserves dignity, equality, and justice. It seeks to empower people to claim their rights and hold governments or institutions accountable when these rights are violated. Advocates work to raise awareness about issues such as discrimination, access to education, and healthcare, often using legal frameworks and international treaties to support their claims. By framing issues in terms of rights, this approach aims to create systemic change and ensure that every person can enjoy their basic freedoms and entitlements.
