description |
This study, originally published in 2006
and updated in 2011, is being updated in this third edition.
The work was originally based on a study commissioned by the
Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development
(OECD) Development Assistance Committee (DAC) Network on
Governance (GOVNET), which reviewed the approaches of
different donor agencies and their rationales for working on
human rights. The third edition reviews the current practice
in the field and draws together experiences that form the
core of the current evidence around the contribution of
human rights to development. It discusses both new
opportunities and conceptual and practical challenges to
human rights that concern the development partnerships
between donors and partner countries, and the workings of
the international aid system more broadly. This edition
includes recent developments in the area of human rights,
aid effectiveness, and sustainable development. Of continued
relevance to this publication is the OECD DAC 2007
Action-Oriented Policy Paper, which affirmed unequivocally
that human rights are an essential part of development
cooperation, noting the increasing convergence of the two
areas and the relevance of human rights considerations to
aid effectiveness: the 2008 Accra agenda for action and 2011
Busan outcome document both acknowledged the importance of
human rights standards and principles. In the context of the
Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), the 2010 UN World
Summit outcome document confirmed the centrality of human
rights to sustainable development that paved the way for the
2015 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Finally, in the
sphere of business and human rights, the 2013 adoption of
the Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights by the
UN Human Rights Council, although of more indirect relevance
to donor policies, signaled a rapprochement in terms between
the worlds of finance and investment on the one hand and
human rights on the other. The links among rights
violations, poverty, exclusion, environmental degradation,
vulnerability, and conflict in more applied terms have
continued to be explored. There is growing recognition of
the intrinsic importance of human rights in a range of
contexts, as well as their potential instrumental relevance
for improved development processes and outcomes and a
sustained interest in tools and metrics, including human
rights indicators. |
