'Change from the ground up: Reflections on using a Rights Based Approach' which marks the growth in PPR’s approach, just over a decade after our first campaign was launched in 2007.
Since then PPR’s methodology of developing grassroots human rights indicators to monitor change has been recognised by the UN Office of the High Commission for Human Rights as a good practice example of ‘how communities can claim their rights‘.
Since 2014 PPR's approach began to be adopted more widely, evidencing its value to community groups, the language rights community, Travellers groups, Trade Unions, tenants' groups and National Human Rights Institutions. We saw that our Human Rights Based Approach was effective beyond Northern Ireland, on a range of issues across the spectrum of social and economic rights. The dream of developing an approach that could bring change beyond PPR’s directly supported groups was taking shape.
Interviews were conducted for this publication with people who have used or been influenced by PPR.
