Alternatively, it could be looking at one institution which engages in development assistance and how it regards human rights. This could be, for example, the World Bank, or it could be Norway. Examples: Right to food, right to work in India, Right to water in South Africa, right to housing, right to education in a country of your choice. Or, it could be on the work of the Committee to implement CEDAW or CESCR of the United Nations, or the special rapporteurs on water, food, etc. There will be both an oral and a written component.

Examiner External examiner will do up to 50. If there are more than 50 we will do a selection. Course contents Human rights has become increasingly important and an important ethical and practical approach to development theory, policy and practice. In adding economic and social rights to civil and political rights, human rights law makes development central to the realization of virtually all human rights. This course considers the range of economic, social and cultural rights in light of how, if implemented, it can augment or alter paths to social and economic development and equality. The class will consider among others the right to food, to water, to health, to property, to work, to a clean environment, to gender equality, et al. States' (and other international institutions) practices will be examined in light of how they fulfil their obligations under the range of human rights principles and laws. With the tremendous Page 6 of 7
7 growth of international business, investment agreements and trade, the class will consider the possibilities and effects existing human rights law might have upon international business practices. Throughout the course critiques of human rights approaches will be covered, especially those which focus on their western biases, their ineffectiveness, or their costs. The aim is to support students in their understanding of human rights law, its uses, its limits and how it can be used to support development. [7]
