The Primer: ‘Human Rights and the Millennium Development Goals - Making the Link’ and WebPortal ‘HuRiLink’
1 October 2007
United Nations Development Programme (UNDP)
Two tools on Human Rights and the MDGs: The Primer- Human Rights and the Millennium Development Goals- Making the Link and the WebPortal- HuRiLink. These tools have been designed to support development practitioners effectively link human rights and the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). They respond to the demand from practitioners for guidance on how to make the link between human rights and the MDGs in their work.
The Primer and webportal have been developed as complementary tools that provide conceptual and practical guidance on linking human rights and the MDGs. Both these tools have been developed through the input, encouragement and collaboration of HURITALK and MDGNet members.
The Primer - Human Rights and the Millennium Development Goals - Making the Link.
The Primer provides a conceptual overview of the links between human rights and the MDGs and explores the key questions that practitioners face in this area. The content is based on the input and observations from the e-discussion and the deliberations of a ‘Working Group Meeting’ held in Oslo in September 2006. The development of the Primer was led by the HURITALK and MDGNet facilitators, Emilie Filmer-Wilson and Andrea Cuzyova, and benefited from the technical advice of Robert Archer from the International Council on Human Rights Policy.
The HuriLink WebPortal has been developed in conjunction with the Primer. It is an on-line tool which presents the experiences and challenges that practitioners face when striving to link human rights and the Millennium Development Goals in their work. It is a resource that has been developed by practitioners, for practitioners. It features lessons learned, common challenges, tools and resources. The portal was developed by the Oslo Governance Centre in close collaboration with Christopher Wilson (consultant). The webportal is a dynamic tool, intended for continual update and amendment as development practitioners report on work being done on the ground. If you would like to submit resources, your own country experiences or comments for the portal, please e-mail: .
