[...] They provide specific guidance on how to address the relationship between poverty and human rights and highlight the importance of a holistic and integrated approach to human rights, including in relation to designing and implementing poverty reduction and eradication policies at the national and international levels. [...] A human rights approach provides a framework for the long-term eradication of extreme poverty based on the recognition of persons living in extreme poverty as rights holders and agents of change A human rights approach respects the dignity and autonomy of persons living in poverty and empowers them to meaningfully and effectively participate in public life, including in the design of public policy.
