From: 'Issues of equity are also issues of rights': Lessons from experiences in Southern Africa
• Rights alone are not enough, but need to be coupled with community engagement |
• Rights, appropriately applied, can strengthen community engagement |
• Rights, conceived in terms of agency, are the strongest guarantors of effective equity-promoting impacts |
• Rights should strengthen the collective agency of the most vulnerable groups |
• Rights approaches should aim to address the public-private and global divides in relation to Human Rights |
• Information and Transparency are key to human rights approaches that build equity |
• Human rights approaches provide additional opportunities for mobilising resources outside the health sector |
