El enfoque basado en derechos humanos encuentra sus bases en normas internacionales y principios de derechos humanos y está orientado a su promoción y protección. Entre estos principios sobresalen los siguientes: (a) universalidad e inalienabilidad; (b) indivisibilidad; (c) interdependencia e interrelación; (d) no discriminación e igualdad; (e) participación e inclusión; y (f) rendición de cuentas y estado de derecho. Este enfoque presta atención a la evaluación de los resultados y procesos; focaliza la atención en los grupos de riesgo; fortalece la participación; considera las particularidades de los territorios; refuerza la transparencia y busca resultados sostenidos. El enfoque se basa, por un lado, en el reconocimiento de la titularidad de derechos y a aquello a que se tiene derecho – es decir el objeto de protección- y, por otro lado, en la identificación consiguiente de los titulares de deberes y sus correspondientes obligaciones. Esto permite identificar y evaluar las desigualdades que subyacen en los problemas del desarrollo y proporcionar respuestas para superar dichas inequidades.
