Human Rights Diplomacy
Human Rights Diplomacy
A diplomatic field encompassing policies and strategies directed toward promoting and protecting human rights. Many international organizations today have human rights at the core of their agenda, and national governments have also been under increasing pressure to incorporate human rights considerations into their foreign policy. Over the years, emerging democracies have put great emphasis on human rights policy and the willingness to engage in this type of diplomacy can be witnessed on all levels: local, regional, national and international.
