Without the ability to make informed choices, our lives are not our own. Along with this comes the expectation of safety-freedom from harm at home, at work and in the community. Human rights committees balance the needs and rights of persons with disabilities with the realities and imperatives of an organization that serves and supports them.People with developmental, mental and physical disabilities are a particularly vulnerable group, who have historically suffered abuse in every form and for every reason. A well-formed and carefully led human rights committee can keep your organization on course, able to follow its mission of assisting people to reach their full potential.Steve Baker and Amy Tabor have both spent their careers working to support persons with disabilities in state institutions and private nonprofit organizations, and have both chaired human rights committees. This handbook is a must-have reference for any organization needing to establish or enhance this essential committee.

The book concerns the study and analysis of the UN Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights from an international legal perspective, taking into consideration the adoption of the 2008 Optional Protocol to the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR). The volume provides a detailed account of the structure and functioning of the Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights in the light of its jurisprudence, through a study of the Committee’s procedures and practices (periodic reports and general comments), including taking into account the Optional Protocol for individual complaint procedure. The book considers the possible implications of the work of this Committee on other UN Committees, such as the Human Rights Committee and the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child, as well as considering the repercussions of its work on the international protection of fundamental rights, such as the right to education, to health and adequate food. The UN Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights will be of particular interest to academics and students of International and Human Rights law.
