Abstract (sommario):

Advocacy comes from the latin word advocare, which means a person who is turned to when help is needed. In the Middle Ages, an advocatus usually acted as a representative of a feudal lord or an institution, such as a local abbey. As societydeveloped, the concept of advocacy also changed. Today, advocacy still has the same meaning - a person called to advocate for another, but instead of being the spokesman or legal representative of a powerful ruler or church, modern advocatesusually advocate or defend specific interests and rights.Article 59 of the Basic Law of the country proclaims a dogmatic idea, which consists in guaranteeing every citizen, excluding anymanifestation of discrimination, the right to professional legal assistance. In turn, the concentration of the social orientation of the legal profession can be traced in Article 131 with note 2, which delegates the exclusive right to represent public interests in court, as well as defense against criminal charges, to the bar. In turn, the functional purpose of the advocacy as a single, independent, professional, human rights institution, which consists in the protection of the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of individuals, is implemented on the principles of the rule of law, legality, independence enshrined in the Law of Ukraine «On Advocacy and Advocacy», confidentiality and avoidance of conflict of interest.The development of the rule of law is impossible without the proper functioning of legal institutions whose activities are aimed at protecting human rights and freedoms. First of all, the scope of the professional rights of lawyers and their duties, the degree of independence, the guarantees of practicing the legal profession, the provision of legal assistance to citizens, the professionalism and availability of legal tools, and the observance of human rights in the process of carrying out activities testify to the democracy of the legal profession. Therefore, at this stage of the development of the science of constitutional law,it is extremely relevant and expedient to study the essence and social role of a lawyer in the life of civil society, which is important, through the prism of the provisions of the national and foreign concepts.

Abstract (sommario):

The inalienable human rights codifications form the basis of human progress. “The goal of this document is to resolve a current and significant problem regarding the convergence of human rights advocacy and the role of ICTs. It will promote efforts to advocate, educate and communicate with others, including media and political stakeholders within and outside the human rights world”[3]. The use of social media can consciously trigger the human rights movement and can also add to their outrage. Any public member or a human rights organisation sends the post, it is reasonably straightforward to explicitly concentrate public attention on social media. The present investigationtried to assess integration of online environment for human rights advocacy.

Abstract (sommario):

Over the past twenty years, International Labour Standards have been cited increasingly as the authoritative, worldwide body of jurisprudence on workers' rights as human rights. Continuing the debate on what constitutes labor rights, the author contrasts the definition of workers' rights under international human rights standards with U.S. labor history's notion of “pure and simple unionism,” examining the boundaries of rights defined by international standards in a comparative historical context. The standards examined include workers' right to organize; coercive employer speech; access to employer premises; nonmajority representation; the right to strike, picket, and boycott; union security clauses; the scope of bargaining; government enforcement; and the legal doctrine of employer association rights. Aligning U.S. labor relations law with international human rights standards would in part be a social advancement, but significant aspects of the standards advocate pure and simple unionism more than the original National Labor Relations Act, raising questions about how labor movements should use international standards as advocacy tools and public policy goals.

Abstract (sommario):

This is the personal memoir of blind lawyer and volunteer disability rights advocate David Lepofsky. It describes his involvement in and perspectives on the successful fight from 1980 to 1982 to get Canada’s proposed Charter of Rights amended to guarantee equal rights for people with disabilities. It includes a foreword by the Hon. Rosalie Abella, former Justice of the Supreme Court of Canada. This memoir recounts the little-known saga of the disability amendment to the Charter. Few know that equality for people with disabilities was the only constitutional right added to the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms during the widely publicized eighteen-month battle over the patriation of Canada’s Constitution, from October 1980 to April 1982. It is aimed at anyone interested in disability rights, human rights, Canadian political or legal history, social justice advocacy, and Canadian constitutional law. It provides a mix of legal and legislative history, personal autobiography, grassroots advocacy strategy and reflective commentary on lessons learned. It compares social justice advocacy techniques in 1980 to those practiced in the disability rights arena four decades later.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

Using a masculinities and human rights framework, this thesis explores civil society advocacy to address sexual violence. This thesis provides recommendations aimed at enhancing civil society effectiveness. Ultimately, seeking to reduce the real rate of rape and improve survivors’ access to justice. This study seeks to respond to current literature gaps to: broaden our understanding of human rights advocacy, examine activists’ conceptualisation of masculinities and human rights as a field, identify the impact of this field of women’s rights - and explore how responses to sexual violence may account for men’s experiences of victimisation. Alongside a review of the literature, this thesis uses two case studies to address the research questions. The first of these case studies looks at civil society advocacy to enact and implement the Criminal Law (Sexual Offences and Related Matters) Amendment Act 32 of 2007. The second of these case studies explores the work of a South African based ‘masculinities and human rights’ NGO, named Sonke Gender Justice Network. This thesis challenges the dominant literature on human rights advocacy. In contrast to the literature’s focus on transnational advocacy networks, this study explores a domestic network which is a product of new cross-sector alliances. The exploration of male rape in South Africa introduces two new concepts: accidental and ambivalent advocacy. These concepts are applied in order to explain how male rape came to be legally recognised, without concerted advocacy to champion the rights of male rape victims. Ultimately, this thesis argues that the impacts of a masculinities and human rights framework are contradictory and dependent on the way the framework is realised in practice. The framework provides some opportunities for developing civil society advocacy to address male rape. However, the way the framework is currently implemented by South Africa’s largest masculinities and human rights NGO raises concerns regarding its impact on women’s rights.

Abstract (sommario):

The essence of human rights and their dimension goes beyond national level. It is universal because it is inherent to human kind. The main source of human rights norms is international human rights instruments. The concern for human rights has grown worldwide and therefore they have been given priority by most nations. They are more and more integrated into national legal frameworks mainly in states constitutions with more or less enforcing mechanisms. As far as the realization of rights is concerned various mechanisms are involved on different levels: international, regional and national. Each of the three levels has its advantages and disadvantages. Yet, the local mechanisms appear to be more effective and adequate given the fact that they are closer to the real subject of the rights (the individuals). In point of fact, human rights involve mainly the relationships between individuals and states but sometimes also between individuals living somewhere in a nation.

Abstract (sommario):

This thesis attempts to ascertain the implications for human rights when rebels become the only advocates of a population targeted by mass violence. The specific focus is placed on the case of Kurdish rebel organisations from Iraq and Turkey. Lacking an ability to organise freely within either state, these groups established a presence in the more open political environment of the West where they undertook efforts aimed at winning global support. After setting a theoretical basis in chapters one and two, the case studies that follow begin with an overview of the causes of the violence experienced by the Iraqi and Turkish Kurds, before proceeding to assess how this violence was represented on the global stage by the rebel organisations and their representatives. The time period assessed runs from the immediate aftermath of World War One through to the present day. Whereas previous studies of advocacy in International Relations have looked closely at the actions of more benign actors such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch, this study is more concerned with what happens when important human rights abuses go unnoticed. In such a context, rebels often become a people's only representatives. The result is that the message presented to the global community is one that conforms to the interests of the rebel organisation. This raises major questions and problems for millions whose perspectives might not match with rebel aims. In short, what is not said is more important than what is said. This focus on rebel-directed activism also casts serious doubts on the value of advocacy by exploring its role in reproducing rebel power at the expense of those that are most in need of support. It was only when Kurdish activists were able to establish an independent perspective that some of these limitations were addressed. In this, the act ivities carried out by the London-based Kurdish Human Rights Project (KHRP) are especially notable. By helping bring cases to the attention of the European Court of Human Rights, the KHRP has helped give voice and obtain tangible results for ordinary Kurds who never figured prominently in the agendas of any Kurdish rebel faction.

Abstract (sommario):

In this project, I look at the work of the International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission (IGLHRC) and the role that brokers at the organization play in constructing, promoting, and institutionalizing a body of LGBT human rights. While a great deal is being written about the diffusion of LGBT politics and human rights discourses from the Global North, there are few ethnographic analyses of who is doing the exporting, how, and toward what ends. Based on a year of fieldwork in IGLHRC’s New York and Cape Town offices, I look at the history of IGLHRC, the interactions among brokers and how these shape their daily work, how brokers understand their mandate and the hybridity that it so often requires, and how partnership with groups in the Global South, the production, verification, and circulation of information, and the possibilities and constraints of the formal human rights arena all shape the work that brokers do. Ultimately, I conclude that human rights advocacy must be understood holistically if it is to be understood at all. Such advocacy always necessarily involves a degree of theoretical elaboration, promotion, and codification by human rights defenders and NGOs, and focusing exclusively on one or another of these aspects paints a skewed portrait of what it means to work within a human rights framework. Drawing from the anthropology of sexuality, queer theory, literature on brokerage, and interdisciplinary studies of transnational advocacy networks, this project aims to deepen understandings of how LGBT NGOs and the brokers that animate them regularly engage in the construction, promotion, and institutionalization of particular understandings of sexuality and the claims that can be made by sexual subjects globally.

Abstract (sommario):

Thesis (D.P.H.)--Boston University
Injection drug use fuels the HIV/AIDS epidemic in the Russian Federation (Russia). Evidence suggests that repressive drug law enforcement is part of the HIV risk environment and associated with risk behaviors that promote HIV transmission among people who inject drugs (PWID). However, no quantitative studies on police involvement and associated risk behaviors or health outcomes exist from Russia. We conducted a mixed-methods study in St. Petersburg, Moscow, and Vladikavkaz to characterize the impact of current policing practices on HIV-risk behaviors and overdose among PWID; and to explore attitudes of stakeholders about Russian drug policy and opportunities to change. Descriptive and multivariate regression analyses of quantitative cross-sectional data from 582 HIV prevention trial participants showed that reported policing practices such as arbitrary arrests, planting of false evidence, and extrajudicial syringe confiscations, are common in Russia and are associated with adverse risk behaviors and health outcomes such as receptive needle sharing and drug overdose, respectively. These policing practices often constitute human rights violations. We failed to demonstrate any deterrent effect of abusive policing practices on drug use. A qualitative exploration among 23 key stakeholders revealed that police violence in various forms is ubiquitous in the lives of Russian PWID. Police abuse is rooted in stigma and a power imbalance between police and PWID, and reinforced by police corruption and the dehumanization of PWID. This study suggests that police practices are part of the HIV risk environment of Russian PWID. The translation of empiric evidence into policy change in the Russian country context might be facilitated by police trainings emphasizing public health and harm reduction principles as well as the development of joint public safety/public health task forces. Using research evidence from other countries to influence policy in Russia has had limited effects. Therefore, more evidence from Russian studies is needed to advance the alignment of public health and public safety efforts to effectively address drug userelated harm and HIV prevention in Russia.

Abstract (sommario):

Typhoon Morakot produced more than 2000 mm of rainfall in two days during August 2009, causing catastrophic damage to parts of southern Taiwan. In the aftermath, 673 people died; 26 went missing; and 1,766 houses were destroyed. To facilitate recovery and reconstruction after the typhoon, the state approved a Special Act of Reconstruction for delimiting specific disaster regions and imposing forced relocation of villagers. A total of 3,096 households, mostly indigenous groups, were relocated to 35 permanent housing units from mountains to lowlands. Without any farmlands, villagers struggled to maintain their livelihoods. In 2020, indigenous villagers protested against the county government for its intention to demolish illegal structures, built by villagers as tourism-related businesses. This advocacy was supported and followed by several university faculty members and NGOs through numerous actions, including organizing protests, filing petitions, and conducting workshops to advocate indigenous human rights. In addition, through university-community collaborations, several “soft actions” were emerged, such as building genealogy and curating settlement history and pictures in local museums, for more community involvement and empowerment. Above all, these advocacy and community actions reflected Sustainable Developments Goals (SDGs) in “climate actions” and “reduced inequalities.” Moreover, through reflections of these actions, community post-disaster resilience may be more about resistance than adaptation. In the future, university scholars and students will continue to work with indigenous communities for advocating indigenous human rights in the era of climate change.

Abstract (sommario):

he field of genetic services within the legal system of the Republic of Serbia was initially regulated in 2015 with the enactment of the Law on Prevention and Diagnosis of Genetic Diseases, Genetically Conditioned Anomalies, and Rare Diseases. This law, commonly known as “Zoja’s Law”, was prompted by the advocacy of parents whose daughter suffered from a rare disease and was denied access to healthcare due to the inability to obtain a diagnosis in Serbia. As a result, the law was introduced to the public with significant attention and is recognized as one of the most modern legal frameworks in Europe concerning the establishment of rights, duties, and responsibilities for participants in medical procedures related to the prevention and diagnosis of genetics diseases, genetically conditioned anomalies, and rare diseases.This law covers several broader areas in the context of genetic testing aimed at establishing a diagnosis, including predictive, prenatal, and postnatal diagnostics. This paper focuses on the analysis of prenatal diagnosis - the genetic testing of embryos or fetuses. In addition to examining the provisions of domestic legislation, special attention will be given to analyzing the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) practice regarding member states’ provision of access to these services for individuals. This analysis entails assessing the compatibility of Serbia’s legal framework with European human rights standards, particularly concerning the right to health and reproductive rights. Key issues explored include access to information, consent, privacy, and the balancing of individual rights with societal interests.

Abstract (sommario):

Economic and social rights have been affirmed since 1976 in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights but the globalization, huge economic differences, and financial and health crises that hap- pened during the last decade have brought them into focus. Economic and social rights include the rights to adequate housing, education, health, work and food. These rights belong to every human being, regardless of age, sex, nationality, ethnicity, religion, race, wealth or any other status. Recognition and respect of these rights is today a challenge for all defenders of human rights, such as institutions, NGOs and academics. A human rights economy places people and the planet at the heart of the economic policies, investment decisions, consumer choices and business models and this will help in completing the ambition of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Goals (Türk,2023). Ten years ago, the World Bank in collaboration with the Human Rights Measurement Initiative developed the economic and social rights performance score, in order measure how effectively countries use their economic resources to ensure the fulfilment of economic and social rights. But which is the status of Albania regarding the economic and social rights? If we refer to data provided by People’s Advocate, the Albanian NHRI, in 2021 there were 32 complaints about non-adequate housing, 101 complaints for education, 97 complaints for healthcare, 51 complaints regarding the right to work and 72 complaints for non-adequate food. Comparing these figures with the total number of 1,630 complaints about human rights violations is clear that they are very low due to the fact that individuals are not aware of having these rights and don’t fight to be part of the policymaking.

Abstract (sommario):

There is no doubt that the world today is more interested than ever in the discourse of human rights that sheds light on the covenants and legal charters that govern this domain. Besides that, women are the pivotal pillar of the society; consequently, they are the primary concern in the human rights discourse of different generations. Subsequently, their personal, cultural, political, financial and social rights are recognized; furthermore, their rights are strengthened by official charters . Despite the fact that no one can deny the positive aspects of the human rights discourse related to the role and the status of women in society by spreading human rights awareness and building a strong relationship between men and women based on human considerations; nevertheless, real life is another world, it is paradoxical, declarations and covenants advocate for women’s rights, at the same time women suffer from violence, disrespect, and discrimination. In the era of rights, cultural openness, technological revolution and economic development, women are threatened more than ever by other ways of violence that directly target the natural instinct and the moral values by spreading abnormalities such as homosexuality and gender reassignment. These acts can also be seen in official discourses and adopted by official organizations and governments profiting from the lack of the moral discourse that should be undertaken by the monotheistic religions especially the Islam. Moreover, the human rights discourse accuses the religious discourse of violating women’s rights and raises a number of suspicions around it. This leads us to question the credibility and the effectiveness of the human rights discourse? And to look for the alternatives that the Islamic discourse can offer in order to remove all the suspicions raised around it. These are questions that I try to answer through this article by elucidating the essence of the Islamic discourse that works for spreading values and also to reply on the suspicions that have been raised about the status of women in the Islam. I decided to follow these steps: Introduction: defining the problem and determining the outlines. First: Instinct is a guide to family values and drawing up the relationship between men and women. Second: Polygamy. Third: Guardianship and Alimony responsibility for the family. Fourth: Guardianship in the Islamic marriage contract. Fifth: Females decrease in religion and mind. Sixth: The male has the equal of the portion of two females. Conclusion.

Abstract (sommario):

The emergence of Innocence Projects in Croatia in 2015 sparked an interest in the fate of wrongfully convicted individuals and the potential of post-conviction DNA examination. In 2020, the experimental Innocence Project was established at the Faculty of Law in Zagreb, funded by the Croatian Science Foundation to raise public awareness of miscarriages of justice, advocate for legal changes to make it easier for defendants to reopen their cases, and provide legal representation for those believed to be wrongfully convicted. This article delves into the use and handling of DNA information by law enforcement agencies and its treatment within the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights and in the Croatian national criminal legislation. However, concerns have been raised regarding the retention, use, and time-limited frameworks of DNA data in law enforcement databases, particularly concerning the presumption of innocence for individuals who have not been convicted of a crime. The European Court of Human Rights adopted the “Marper” test to address this issue and to ensure that all DNA data is expunged from law enforcement databases when it is not relevant to criminal investigations. This test balances the government’s interests in crime prevention and criminal investigation against individual citizens’ privacy interests, making it essential in addressing wrongful convictions. Using the theoretical, comparative, case study, and dogmatic method The article examines the legal standards of the Council of Europe and the European Union, the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights, as well as Croatian positive legal standards on the retention and use of DNA data and applicable databases. Finally, the article suggests potential legislative reforms in Croatia to improve the utilization, storage, and ramification of DNA data and the use of forensic DNA databases to address miscarriages of justice, particularly in “cold cases”.

Abstract (sommario):

This article examines the role of judicial practices in supporting victims of traffic accidents, focusing on the interplay between legal frameworks, victim support systems, and societal values. Through a comparative analysis of global legal systems and an in-depth exploration of domestic laws in Serbia, the study highlights the importance of judicial sensitivity, victim participation, and the integration of public health perspectives in legal responses to traffic accidents. The research reveals substantial variability in the implementation of victim support mechanisms and underscores the potential of restorative justice practices in fostering recovery and reconciliation. Key conclusions advocate for enhanced victim participation in the judicial process, improved accessibility to support services, continuous education for judicial officials, and necessary legislative reforms to strengthen victim rights and protections. The findings aim to contribute to the ongoing discourse on improving judicial practices to better support traffic accident victims, reflecting a broader commitment to justice and human dignity.

Abstract (sommario):

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES This research emerges from Lesotho's diverse landscapes, where children’s stories remain largely unheard in the realm of health policy. The study aims to harness these narratives to drive equity, inclusivity, and human rights in health interventions, positioning youth not just as beneficiaries but as active participants in all health interventions. METHODS This research represents a meta-analysis of a larger, cross-sectional, qualitative research project, focused on understanding childrens’ narratives and experiences on their health and wellbeing. The study employed Participatory Learning Approach (PLA) tools, notably Social and Resource Mapping, Body Mapping, and Cause and Effect Analysis, to delve into these narratives. It involved a purposeful sample of 180 children, ranging from 6 to 19 years old, including school-goers, herd boys, children with disabilities, and teenagers. It occurred in diverse regions of Lesotho (Lowlands, Mountains, Foothills, and Senqu River Valley). This comprehensive approach also encompassed 18 Focus Group Discussions, enriched by Key Informant Interviews with local stakeholders. RESULTS Key findings from this study highlight significant issues in health, Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH), education, nutrition, and child protection. The study underscores the challenges in accessing general healthcare services, particularly stressing the importance of sexual and reproductive health in high HIV/AIDS prevalence areas. The need for improved water and sanitation infrastructure is critically emphasised. In education, children and youth advocate for greater equity and inclusivity. The impact of climate change on nutrition is evident, leading to food insecurity and malnutrition, with high prevalence of stunting. Participants highlighted key facets of child protection, emphasising the increased vulnerability and exploitation of children and youth, alongside a considerable risk of gender-based and sexual violence. CONCLUSIONS Participants powerful testimonies advocate for a paradigm shift towards more inclusive and youth-involved policymaking, challenging the dominance of adult-centric approaches and calling for a holistic integration of their perspectives in programmes and policies.

Abstract (sommario):

Accessibility (a11y) in digital product design makes software, applications, web apps, and other digital interactive products usable for a diverse human audience. Creating digital products that everyone can use is essential for companies and users. For companies, it means establishing a wider audience for their product and conceptually increasing profits. For users, interacting with fully accessible products means that, regardless of being temporarily or permanently disabled, you can still perform all the tasks within a product without issue.There are rules and guidelines like the Americans with Disabilities Act [ADA] and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines [WCAG] that outline what digital products must do in order to be considered accessible. As user experience [UX] practitioners, we must challenge and change the common practice and paradigm of companies using the cost of action and avoidance of responsibility as excuses to neglect accessibility. The goal for everyone building digital products should be to shift the focus from creating a ‘product that people with disabilities can engage with’ to creating products for all people, emphasizing that designing for the extremes benefits everyone. When creating new digital products, there is no excuse not to include accessibility from the start. However, there are barriers to getting there. With existing digital products, there is a cost in adding accessibility into code where it doesn’t currently exist. Updating the code is called “refactoring” and takes engineering resources to perform. However, every digital product must be accessible. One does not have to look far to find news articles about corporations facing legal troubles because their digital product is not up to accessibility standards. In the early 2000s, the concept of “responsive design” emerged. A responsive product is the idea that one design could adapt when displayed on different screens to allow one codebase to control multiple views of the same product. Before this idea, a mobile product would need to be created and maintained, as well as a desktop application. At first, responsive products were considered an afterthought and sold as an “add-on” to make maintaining digital products easier. In current practice, responsive design is just how good products are built. Even when a digital product starts as a mobile application, it is (or should be) developed to be responsive for 1: all mobile form factors, and 2: in the future, the product can be utilized in other sizes, like a desktop or web application.Companies and people creating products should think about accessibility first. Accessibility design should be part of the modern baseline for starting and developing all digital products. Through education and visual references, all user experience practitioners must be familiar with accessibility standards as a practice to advocate that all creators of digital products start with accessibility design. We want to break down the barriers to “thinking accessibly.” Our field's responsibility is to advocate and push companies to do the right thing from the beginning. Through working cross-team, we intend to support our developer friends in including accessibility from the start and educate them when code is not up to accessibility standards.

Abstract (sommario):

addresses state obligations under the African Charter concerning the provision of social services amid increasing privatisation. Since the 1980s, structural adjustment programs in Africa and Latin America have led to the decline of public social services like education and healthcare, exacerbating inequality. General Comment 7 reaffirms the importance of public social services, providing a comprehensive interpretation of human rights laws. It outlines the necessity for states to ensure quality, accessible public services through progressive taxation and effective regulation of private actors. This document serves as an advocacy tool to promote collaboration between Africa and Latin America, aiming to uphold economic, social and cultural rights for all, regardless of socio-economic status.

Abstract (sommario):

The United Nations Human Rights Council has a powerful role to play in addressing the worst forms of child labour. Accountability mechanisms such as the Universal Periodic Review (UPR) – which work to support Member States to improve their human rights situation – are therefore widely seen as important opportunities to advocate for change. Ahead of Nepal’s third UPR cycle in 2021, the CLARISSA programme met with eight UN Permanent Missions to present recommendations addressing the exploitation of children within Nepal’s adult entertainment sector. This spotlight story shares the programme’s experience in advocacting within this process. It also highlights their approach of providing decision makers with recommendations to the Government of Nepal that were underpinned by the importance of integrating a participatory, adaptive and child-centred approach.

Who Owns the Land in Africa? Formal recognition of community-based land rights in Sub-Saharan Africa. Rights and Resources Initiative, ottobre 2015. http://dx.doi.org/10.53892/wlvi2246.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

The question of who owns the world’s lands and natural resources is a major source of contestation around the globe, affecting prospects for rural economic development, human rights and dignity, cultural survival, political stability, conservation of the environment, and efforts to combat climate change. To inform advocacy and action on community land rights, RRI has published Who Owns the World’s Land? A global baseline of formally recognized indigenous & community land rights (“the global baseline”), which identifies the amount of land national governments have formally recognized as owned or controlled by Indigenous Peoples and local communities across 64 countries constituting 82 percent of global land area. The report focuses on community-based tenure regimes, which include any system where formal rights to own or manage land or terrestrial resources are held at the community level, including lands held under customary tenure regimes. This brief summarizes findings on community ownership and control of lands in the 19 countries in Sub-Saharan Africa that were included in the global baseline.
