It draws together learning materials about the human rights obligations of the public sector and how to successfully implement these. The materials include tried and tested examples of how to consider human rights in public service delivery as well as case studies, informal guidance, inspection standards and impact assessments.
The resource also includes details about supporting the rights of particular groups, such as older or disabled people. One example notes that public authorities providing adult social care maybe infringing human rights when they are excessively risk averse, as well as when they fail to avoid risk.
Visitors to the site are further invited to fill in a brief survey and make suggestions as to what other types of guidance they would find useful.
