ABSTRACT

Human rights and development have attracted wide attention in recent years. While human rights and development organizations would benefit from mutual learning, they continue to operate on parallel tracks. This applies in particular to the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). This chapter deals with the integration of human rights indicators and MDG indicators. It examines the use of MDG indicators to monitor human rights and that of human rights indicators to monitor the MDGs, in order to evaluate how this integration can produce changes in approaches for both human rights and development organizations.
