Book excerpt: This manual is one component of a two-part package of materials for training on human rights monitoring for UN human rights officers and other human rights monitors. This training manual provides practical guidance principally for the conduct of human rights monitoring in United Nations field operations, but it may also be useful to other human rights monitors. The two components of the package are designed to complement each other and, taken together, provide the basis for the conduct of programmes for human rights officers in field operations and for other human rights monitors, under the approach developed by the United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights.

Book excerpt: The aim of this publication is to assist policymakers and development officials in enabling a more participatory role for women in women in development, sustainable development, and environmental management (WED), and to create awareness of the multisectoral and multidisciplinary linkages between WED. The introduction summarizes mandates from the Rio Declaration and Agenda 21, the Nairobi Forward Looking Strategies, and Principle 20 of the Rio Declaration on Strengthening Women's Role. The concept of development changed from the 1950s and 1960s focus on gross economic issues. By the 1970s, the focus shifted to the satisfaction of basic needs. Women's role in the development process was recognized at Mexico's 1975 UN Conference on Women and Development in the Women's Decade (1976-85), and the 1985 Conference in Nairobi. The links between WED are now acknowledged. The manual includes 4 modules. The first unit summarizes issues in Environmental Health (poverty, population pressure, resource use, food supply, energy, water and sanitation, urban services, settlements, and global environmental issues). The second unit's focus is on Women as Agents of Change (energy, agriculture, water, human settlements, forestry, transportation, and science and technology). The third module's focus is on women as managers of water and sanitation/waste. The fourth module's focus is on capacity building and guidelines for action at the program level.

Book excerpt: This revised and updated collection is intended to serve as a thematic textbook on the institutions and procedures devoted to the national implementation of human rights and to the international monitoring of State performance. Albeit not exhaustive, the coverage extends to most of the monitoring instances available at intergovernmental and non-governmental organizations: complaints, fact-finding and investigative procedures, State reporting obligations, good offices actions, dialogue functions, human rights education, dissemination of human rights information, letter campaigns, and technical co-operation. The target audience of the book is students of international human rights law, but the book can also serve as a guide for both officials and activists involved in the realization of human rights.The success of the first edition has allowed for this second edition. It demonstrates that there is a important demand for literature with a focus on human rights monitoring and follow-up activities.

Book excerpt: The alarmingly low health status of millions of people in many developing countries is now recognised as a major obstacle to the process of development. In response, increasing numbers of non-governmental organizations are championing the right to health of the disadvantaged, vulnerable and those living in poverty. They are using the right to health in their struggle for access to quality health services, as well as the underlying determinants of health, such as safe drinking water and adequate sanitation. In other words, the right to health, and other fundamental human rights, are seen as a way of promoting development. In a clear style and accessible format, this unique, timely and practical Manual shows health professionals, their associations and other interested non-governmental organizations, some of the practical ways in which they can promote, protect and monitor the right to health in their communities and countries. It considers the obligations of states in relation to individuals within their borders, as well as the human rights responsibilities of states beyond their borders. As befits a human rights manual, it has a particular preoccupation with the right to health of the vulnerable, marginalized and otherwise disadvantaged groups and those living in poverty.

Book excerpt: No philosophical idea has had a more profound impact on international relations and world politics than human rights. Within half a century since World War II, human rights developed into the only universally accepted value system of our times. This book is tailored to the multidisciplinary Vienna Master of Arts in Human Rights and provides human rights professionals with a first insight into the fascinating and multifaceted world of human rights with its universal and regional organizations, standards, and protection mechanisms. All Human Rights for All covers the rich spectrum of civil, political, economic, social, cultural, and collective rights, as well as the rights of specific groups, such as children, the elderly, indigenous peoples, and women. The book particularly focuses on contemporary issues and challenges, such as the protection of the environment and climate change, counterterrorism, as well as democratization and new social media. It also looks at practical skills, including human rights education and training, litigation, lobbying, fact-finding, monitoring, and capacity building. The contributors are scholars from different disciplines at Vienna's universities and the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute of Human Rights, along with practitioners working in international and regional organizations based in Vienna, such as the United Nations, the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, and the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights.

Book excerpt: This third edition of Understanding Human Rights has been elaborated by the European Training and Research Center for Human Rights and Democracy (ETC) in Graz, originally for the Human Security Network (HSN) at the initiative of the Austrian Ministry for Foreign Affairs. The objective is to assist human rights education efforts worldwide. The book's thematic modules on selected human rights issues cover topics such as: the prohibition of torture, freedom from poverty, human rights of women and children, human rights in armed conflict, freedom of expression, and democracy. New to this updated edition are chapters reflecting current trends in human rights, including new modules on privacy (such as challenges posed by Internet use), minority rights, and the right to asylum. Translations of the earlier editions already exist in 15 languages, among them all the official United Nations languages. Understanding Human Rights has become a basic text for human rights education and training in different countries, on different levels, and for different audiences, from university lectures in China to NGO training in Mali to police training in Kosovo.

This book was released on 2016-08-15 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Manual highlights the human rights principles and criteria in relation to drinking water and sanitation. It explains the international legal obligations in terms of operational policies and practice that will support the progressive realisation of universal access. The Manual introduces a human rights perspective that will add value to informed decision making in the daily routine of operators, managers and regulators. It also encourages its readership to engage actively in national dialogues where the human rights to safe drinking water and sanitation are translated into national and local policies, laws and regulations. Creating such an enabling environment is, in fact, only the first step in the process towards progressive realisation. Allocation of roles and responsibilities is the next step, in an updated institutional and operational set up that helps apply a human rights lens to the process of reviewing and revising the essential functions of operators, service providers and regulators.
