During this event, participants explore the impact of adopting a human rights-based approach within development organizations, especially in contexts where civic space is shrinking. Representatives from CARE, DKA Austria, Light for the World, and their partner organisations from the Global South will discuss how they implement this approach, what it means in practice, and highlight the tangible differences a human rights-based approach has on their work.

We will explore key questions such as: 

• What does it mean to apply a human rights-based approach in specific situations? 
• What are the tangible benefits of this approach? 
• How does it influence the planning and execution of development projects?

Following insightful presentations, there will be time for open discussion, where we can share lessons learned, discuss recent updates on human rights and development, and connect with others in the field.
