From Theory to Practice: Reflections on how we can Meaningfully Measure Human Rights Impact 从理论到实践:关于如何有效衡量人权影响的思考

Natalia Gubbioni, Danny Vannucchi
What are the biggest challenges and opportunities when an organization is trying to understand the human rights impact it has achieved? Building on more than 12 years combined years of practical evaluation and impact assessment experience across various organizations in the human rights field, the authors reflect on the key lessons learnt while trying to balance organizational needs of reporting, planning, and accountability with the substantive need of understanding how to break down human rights progress and how it happens. Reflections will be articulated in four key challenges, each with practical ideas to build on: the data challenge—what kind of information can give us the most meaningful view of human rights impact; the progress challenge—how we might capture the incremental nature and gradual pace of human rights impact; the target challenge—how best to balance the need to work towards realistic targets with setting an ambitious agenda for change; and finally, the context challenge—how we might compare human rights impact across countries and acknowledge different operating contexts.
当一个组织试图了解它所取得的人权影响时,最大的挑战和机遇是什么?在人权领域各组织超过12年的实际评估和影响评估经验的基础上,作者在试图平衡组织对报告、规划和问责的需求与理解如何分解人权进展及其发生方式的实质性需求的同时,反思了所吸取的关键教训。将在四个关键挑战中阐述反思,每个挑战都有实际的想法作为基础:数据挑战——什么样的信息可以让我们对人权影响有最有意义的看法;进步的挑战——我们如何把握人权影响的渐进式和渐进式;目标挑战——如何最好地平衡实现现实目标的需要与制定雄心勃勃的变革议程之间的关系;最后,背景挑战——我们如何比较各国对人权的影响,并承认不同的运作背景。

Making Right to Housing Work: Learnings from YUVA’s Approach of Enabling the Right to Adequate Housing 让住房权发挥作用:从乌克兰住房联盟实现适足住房权的方法中汲取经验
IF 1 Q3 INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS Pub Date : 2023-11-17 DOI: 10.1093/jhuman/huad049

This article presents a model of human rights practice in India, specifically focused on the right to adequate housing for marginalized groups. It details this through the praxis of a 40-year-old non-profit organization called Youth for Unity and Voluntary Action (YUVA). The article presents the approach, rooted in the specific socio-legal contexts of Indian cities where YUVA works. Four key elements from YUVA’s model of work are elaborated: a) facilitating access to citizenship rights to enable individual claim-making; b) formation of people’s organizations towards collectivization; c) formation of wider city- and state-level alliances towards policy and advocacy shifts; d) strategic inputs to drive inclusion in urban plans. Although the insights embody the experience of a single organization, they offer several lessons for wider human rights practice with respect to realizing the right to housing in developing country contexts, especially in the Global South.
本文介绍了印度的人权实践模式,特别关注边缘化群体的适足住房权。文章通过一个名为 "青年团结和志愿行动"(YUVA)的具有 40 年历史的非营利组织的实践,详细介绍了这一模式。文章介绍了植根于团结和志愿行动青年组织开展工作的印度城市的特定社会法律背景的方法。文章阐述了团结和志愿行动青年组织工作模式的四个关键要素:a) 促进获得公民权利,使个人能够提出权利主张;b) 建立人民组织,实现集体化;c) 建立更广泛的城市和邦一级的联盟,实现政策和宣传转变;d) 提供战略投入,推动城市规划中的包容性。尽管这些见解体现的是一个组织的经验,但它们为发展中国家,特别是全球南部国家在实现住房权方面更广泛的人权实践提供了一些借鉴。

Climate emergency is one of the facets shaping the current stage of ecological imbalance and requires action to be taken. The trend to address conflicts involving climate change by legal means is clearly on the rise, and the article argues that this calls for an evolving constitutional dialogue on human rights. The article examines the phenomenon, particularly in Latin American countries, explaining how past development of constitutions in the region, for all its precarious effectiveness, has already served to consolidate a path demanding judicial review in matters affecting human rights of constitutional stature. It argues that this path is being pursued by the ongoing climate litigation in Latin America. Based on case discussions, the article demonstrates how compliance with the Paris Agreement has been assimilated as a commitment to constitutional protection of human rights in the region, and how this process must deepen, taking into account regional vulnerabilities and future developments, in order to strengthen the fundamental human right not only to mitigation, but also to adaptation and equitable transitions.
气候紧急状况是形成当前生态失衡阶段的一个方面,需要采取行动。通过法律手段解决涉及气候变化的冲突的趋势显然正在上升,这篇文章认为,这需要在人权方面进行不断发展的宪法对话。这篇文章审查了这一现象,特别是在拉丁美洲国家,解释了该地区过去的宪法发展,尽管其效力不稳定,但如何已经巩固了一条要求对影响宪法地位的人权事项进行司法审查的道路。它认为,拉丁美洲正在进行的气候诉讼正在走这条道路。在案例讨论的基础上,本文展示了遵守《巴黎协定》如何被视为对该地区宪法保护人权的承诺,以及必须如何在考虑到区域脆弱性和未来发展的情况下深化这一进程,以便不仅加强缓解,而且加强适应和公平过渡的基本人权。

Abstract Civil society groups, in all their diversity, contribute to the creation of peaceful, just, equal and sustainable societies in myriad ways: as sources of innovation and solutions to pressing problems, as service providers for equity, as watchdogs over public resources and more. But they continue to face an onslaught of attacks and civic space restrictions in most countries. This article examines three key research and analysis initiatives developed over a decade by CIVICUS, the global civil society alliance, to help shine a spotlight on civic participation and freedoms, and the challenges and opportunities that gave rise to each and that helped shape a growing focus on civil society narratives.
各种各样的民间社会团体以各种方式为创建和平、公正、平等和可持续的社会作出贡献:作为创新的源泉和紧迫问题的解决方案,作为公平的服务提供者,作为公共资源的监督者等等。但在大多数国家,他们继续面临攻击的冲击和公民空间的限制。本文考察了全球公民社会联盟CIVICUS在过去十年中开展的三项重要研究和分析计划,以帮助关注公民参与和自由,以及产生这些计划的挑战和机遇,并帮助塑造了对公民社会叙事的日益关注。

Conceptualization Shapes Practice: Apostasy-Based Refugee Claims and International Human Rights Law 概念化塑造实践:基于叛教的难民索赔和国际人权法
Q3 INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS Pub Date : 2023-11-02 DOI: 10.1093/jhuman/huad052

Abstract Freedom of religion or belief is guaranteed in international human rights law. Incorporating the right to apostasy as a fundamental aspect of religious freedom encounters challenges in different state practices. To study this phenomenon, this article explores the interaction of the conceptualization of the right to apostasy in international human rights law and in the context of apostasy-based refugee claims. The main argument of this article is that ambiguity in international human rights law exists on the concept of ‘apostasy’. This results in human rights protection gaps when states are unwilling to grant their inhabitants the right to apostasy. These gaps in protection are sometimes filled in by refugee law. However, in the specific context of apostasy-based refugee claims, this article identifies an issue with the identification and application of the concept of apostasy—and this conceptual ambiguity may lead to a lack of protection. Indeed, conceptualization shapes practice.
宗教信仰自由受到国际人权法的保障。将叛教权作为宗教自由的一个基本方面在不同的国家实践中遇到挑战。为了研究这一现象,本文探讨了国际人权法中叛教权概念化与基于叛教的难民申请背景下的相互作用。本文的主要论点是,国际人权法对“叛教”的概念存在歧义。当国家不愿意授予其居民叛教的权利时,这就导致了人权保护的空白。这些保护的空白有时由难民法填补。然而,在以叛教为基础的难民申请的具体背景下,本文确定了叛教概念的识别和应用问题,这种概念上的模糊性可能导致缺乏保护。事实上,概念化塑造了实践。

Proactive Prevention: Denmark’s Domestic Practices of Human Rights Compliance 积极预防:丹麦遵守人权的国内做法
Q3 INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS Pub Date : 2023-10-28 DOI: 10.1093/jhuman/huad036

Abstract Fuelled by an ambition to solve the puzzle of the stark contrast between Denmark’s increasingly negative presence in the international press and its leading performance in European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) compliance statistics, this article presents the results of a mixed-method study of the country’s domestic human rights’ protection and implementation practices. The story that emerges is not one of compliance, but of proactive prevention with a tinge of strategic risk-taking and prompt implementation. The majority of the Danish action within the compliance sphere takes place before one can even talk about compliance—domestically before the international spotlight is prompted to shine on Denmark by an adverse judgment against it. The article shows how each branch of power has an idiosyncratic way of working towards the prevention of human rights’ breaches. Yet, domestic prevention and international statistics say little about the quality of implementation and human rights’ protection. The article offers a concrete illustration of the blind spots of compliance data in the absence of qualitative research related to domestic practices and proves that there are lessons to be learned from studying even the most exemplary compliers. This makes the Danish case study an important contribution to the broader literature on the ways in which the ECtHR influences states other than through the implementation of judgments. Importantly, it also shows that while the proactive prevention of adverse ECtHR judgments can mean the same as the proactive prevention of human rights’ breaches, this is not always the case.
丹麦在国际媒体上日益负面的形象与其在欧洲人权法院(ECtHR)合规统计数据中的领先表现之间形成鲜明对比,本文提出了一项对该国国内人权保护和实施实践的混合方法研究的结果,旨在解决这一难题。这并不是一个合规的故事,而是一个带有些许战略冒险和迅速实施的积极预防。丹麦在合规领域的大部分行动发生在人们甚至可以谈论合规之前——在国内——在国际焦点被对丹麦不利的判决吸引到丹麦之前。这篇文章展示了每个权力部门如何以一种独特的方式来防止侵犯人权。然而,国内预防和国际统计数据几乎没有说明执行和人权保护的质量。本文具体说明了合规数据在缺乏与国内实践相关的定性研究的情况下存在的盲点,并证明即使对最具代表性的审计机构进行研究也有值得借鉴的地方。这使得丹麦案例研究对更广泛的关于欧洲人权委员会除通过执行判决以外如何影响国家的文献作出了重要贡献。重要的是,它还表明,虽然主动预防欧洲人权法院的不利判决可能意味着与主动预防侵犯人权行为相同,但情况并非总是如此。

Abstract Based on the latest developments in ecological law in Latin America, including the recognition of the rights of nature, this article examines emerging climate-related cases that, challenging Western anthropocentric legal paradigms, address the climate crisis from an ecocentric perspective to protect both human and nature rights. Through novel arguments based on ecological law counter-narratives and a rights of nature perspective, these cases are giving way to the emergence of a new typology of climate litigation in which the intrinsic value and interests of all life forms and the legal status of nature are recognized. First, this article analyses the experience and current trends in the emerging field of ecological law in the region, including ecological and intergenerational dimensions of human rights and the legal and jurisprudential recognition of the rights of nature. Second, it reviews and compares some of the most relevant climate-related cases as well as recent, less known—some still pending—claims that incorporate an ecocentric approach, combining the protection of the rights of present and future generations and the rights of nature or exploring other arguments in the field of ecological law. These cases have the potential to contribute to the development of climate litigation with an ecocentric profile. Attention is given to the main arguments, characteristics, strengths, and shortcomings of these cases, as well as to potential barriers to the development of an ecocentric angle to climate litigation and the implementation of judicial decisions.
基于拉丁美洲生态法律的最新发展,包括对自然权利的承认,本文考察了新兴的气候相关案例,这些案例挑战了西方人类中心主义的法律范式,从生态中心主义的角度解决气候危机,以保护人类和自然权利。通过基于生态法律反叙事和自然权利视角的新颖论点,这些案例正在让位于一种新的气候诉讼类型的出现,在这种诉讼类型中,所有生命形式的内在价值和利益以及自然的法律地位都得到了承认。首先,本文分析了该地区新兴生态法领域的经验和当前趋势,包括人权的生态和代际维度以及对自然权利的法律和法理承认。其次,它回顾和比较了一些最相关的与气候有关的案例,以及最近的、不太为人所知的(一些仍在审理中的)主张,这些主张采用了生态中心的方法,将保护当代和后代的权利与自然权利结合起来,或探索了生态法律领域的其他论点。这些案件有可能促进以生态为中心的气候诉讼的发展。关注这些案例的主要论点、特征、优势和不足,以及发展生态中心角度的气候诉讼和司法判决的实施的潜在障碍。

Abstract The article discusses the importance of adopting a human rights-based approach in addressing the lessons learned from the Covid-19 pandemic. The article highlights the case of a human rights-based hospital in Sweden that actively reached out to vulnerable individuals in the community during the pandemic, emphasizing how the human rights-based approach contributes to building trust and thereby realizing the right to life and health. Based on this example it explores the need for a human rights-based approach in crisis management including climate-induced disasters. The article emphasizes the interconnectedness of all human rights and the need for economic prioritizations that align with social justice commitments. It highlights the role of institutions, legal frameworks, and collaborative efforts at various levels to ensure the realization of human rights and the principle of ‘leave no one behind’. The article concludes by advocating for the integration of human rights principles into legislation, policies, and actions to build a fairer and more resilient society.
本文讨论了在吸取2019冠状病毒病大流行教训时采取基于人权的方法的重要性。文章重点介绍了瑞典一家以人权为基础的医院在大流行期间积极向社区中的弱势个人伸出援助之手的案例,强调了以人权为基础的做法如何有助于建立信任,从而实现生命权和健康权。以这个例子为基础,探讨在危机管理(包括气候引起的灾害)中采用基于人权的方法的必要性。这篇文章强调了所有人权之间的相互联系,以及需要制定与社会正义承诺相一致的经济优先事项。它强调了机构、法律框架和各级协作努力在确保实现人权和“不让任何人掉队”原则方面的作用。文章最后主张将人权原则纳入立法、政策和行动,以建立一个更公平、更有弹性的社会。

The article concludes by advocating for the integration of human rights principles into legislation, policies, and actions to build a fairer and more resilient society.","PeriodicalId":45407,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Human Rights Practice","volume":"81 11","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135266148","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Abstract In this brief text I want to offer a personal reflection on my work as a former Commissioner in Colombia’s Commission for the Clarification of Truth, Coexistence and Non-repetition. What is of interest to me is the idea that truth-seeking commission models are complex “listening devices” that render certain forms of violence intelligible while other more systemic types, remain elusive. In contexts of deeply rooted historical and endemic racial and economic inequalities, this is not a minor issue as these material inequalities are at the heart of conflict itself. In fact, what I call the “transitional promise of transformation” often falls short of changing the structures of quotidian experience of people and communities scarred by such historical injuries. Rather, those “transformations” are deferred to a future “liberal peace building” or development-oriented agenda. I examine this way of listening through a particular theoretical lens and aspire not only to contribute with an empathic and a reflexive distance from our work as a Commission but also to posit wider questions.
在这篇简短的文章中,我想谈谈我个人作为哥伦比亚澄清真相、共存和不重复委员会前专员的工作。我感兴趣的是,寻求真相的委员会模式是复杂的“监听装置”,它使某些形式的暴力变得容易理解,而其他更系统的类型仍然难以捉摸。在根深蒂固的历史和地方性的种族和经济不平等背景下,这不是一个小问题,因为这些物质不平等是冲突本身的核心。事实上,我所说的“转型的过渡承诺”往往无法改变人们和社区的日常经验结构,这些人和社区受到这种历史伤害的伤害。相反,这些“转变”被推迟到未来的“自由和平建设”或以发展为导向的议程。我通过一种特殊的理论视角来审视这种倾听方式,并渴望不仅以一种感同身受的方式做出贡献,而且与我们作为一个委员会的工作保持一种反思的距离,而且还提出了更广泛的问题。
