The paper presents a strategy for poor people to achieve their human rights and fundamental freedoms. The paper asserts that international development targets for the poor can only be achieved with their active engagement and that a human rights approach provides a means of empowering people to take control of their lives. DFID has identified participation, obligation and inclusion as the three operational principles that apply to the achievement of human rights for all people.
