The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) has been involved for many years in training persons working in various professions in areas of human rights which touch on their particular field of competence. The methodological approach developed on the basis of the experience gained is comprised of basic elements which, appropriately adapted and modified for each target group, can provide useful guidance for the conceptualization, planning, implementation and evaluation of human rights training programmes for adult professionals. These elements are described below. This series consists of handbooks and manuals intended to raise awareness of international standards. It is directed at audiences that are able to influence the human rights situation in their countries. Although primarily designed to support OHCHR training activities, these publications also serve as practical tools for organizations that provide human rights education to professional groups.
The training manuals in this series are, by design, adaptable to the needs and experience, in terms of culture, education and history, of a range of potential audiences within the target group. Where appropriate, information on effective pedagogical techniques is included to help trainers use the manuals as effectively as possible. Each manual or handbook is prepared with the assistance of experts and is subject to extensive external review and appraisal.
