rights-based development

Rights-based development is an approach that focuses on empowering individuals and communities by recognizing and promoting their fundamental human rights, such as health, education, and participation. It emphasizes that development efforts should be rooted in respecting these rights, ensuring that all people have a voice and access to resources. This approach seeks to address inequality and injustice by making sure policies and programs uphold human dignity, giving communities the means to improve their lives while holding governments and organizations accountable for their obligations.
