The economy of human rights
Exploring potential linkages between human rights and economic development.
The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development reaffirms that social, environmental and economic development are mutually interdependent. Policy making for sustainable development involves fostering a virtuous cycle, where these aspects reinforce rather than undermine each other.
The purpose of this paper is to contribute to a better understanding of how such a virtuous cycle can be achieved between social and economic development. More specifically, the paper explores the relationship between human rights and economic development.
The paper has now been translated into Russian as well.
