Abstract

Rights-based approaches to development that use human rights—economic, social, cultural, civil and political, as established by international law—as the framework to guide development agendas, have been increasingly adopted in recent years and particularly in the last decade, including by the United Nations and its agencies. In essence, it is recognized that all development initiatives should contribute directly to the realization of human rights. In this context, the paper prepared by the Secretariat of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) for the Agenda item on “Social Issues in Small-scale Fisheries” (COFI/2007/6), stressing a human-rights perspective to foster social development and effective resource management, is timely .and needs to be welcomed.
