Few pieces of legislation cause as much anxiety as the
Human Rights Act, even though its purpose is quite the
opposite.This course begins by examining the origins of
human rights, and goes on to encourage participants to
take ownership of the Act and recognise the impact it
should have on their day-to-day work. Each Article is
closely related to practice, with particular attention to
information sharing and protection of the vulnerable and
well as a framework for dealing with the ethical dilemmas
that confront us.
Learning outcomes cover:
- The issues of children’s rights and the responsibilities
of carers.
- An understanding of working in an anti-oppressive way
which promotes individual rights and responsibilities.
- Reviewing organisational practice in the context of the
Human Rights Act.
- Enabling participants to share common concerns and
solutions.
- Developing an awareness of the need to include the
concepts and guidance of the Act in practice.
