???This brief introduces a rights-based approach to policy analysis for social workers. Conventional methods of policy analysis tend to emphasize outcomes and neglect the process by which social protection systems are established, whereas a rights-based approach embraces both the process and the outcomes. This book guides social workers through how to integrate human rights principles into social policies with the goal of developing long and short-term responses to current social issues that further human rights. A growing number of international entities (U.N. agencies, donor groups, NGOs, community-based organizations) utilize a rights-based framework in their development. It benefits social workers to be familiar with and skilled in this approach. The policy analysis framework introduced here is based on human rights standards and principles, and it can be used to establish policy goals whether they are local, national, or global issues.? ?
