Abstract

Rights based approaches provide a lens and a tool box for understanding and addressing issues of governance and specifically the underlying causes of poverty, environmental degradation and injustice related to power. This article illustrates the application of this approach within CARE International and specifically in CARE's Rights, Equity and Protected Areas programme in Uganda, emphasising procedural rights of access to information, participation and justice. The article demonstrates that working to ensure procedural rights can be an effective entry point for positive social and environmental impacts.
