| Sumario: | The Human Rights Approach is based on the idea that civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights embodied in national as well as international binding agreements, must preside over design, implementation and evaluation of public policies. Recently, this approach has been used, not only as a referential theoretical/normative framework for the incorporation of certain principles and fundamental rights in the design of public policies, but also as a methodological tool to measure how a particular policy adjusts to this model. The present work proposes this model´s applicattion to the conditional cash transfer program PROGRAMA DE RESPALDO DE ESTUDIANTES DE ARGENTINA (PROG.R.ES.AR), making use of fundamental principles that are essential to the model in order to analyze the policy in question. Executive Order 84/2014, which gave rise to the program, as well as those regulations and ministerial provisions that enabled its execution, were the main sources consulted. Methodological design incorporates dimensions and indicators developed by the San Salvador Protocol Task Force (GTPSS in Spanish) of the Organization of American States (OAS). Principles elaborated by academic experts and referents in the subject are also incorporated. These principles are universality, equality, participation and access to information, satisfaction (of the recipients), access to justice, complaint mechanisms, state capacities, which are all cross-examined through the principles of progressivity and reasonability. Having analyzed this public policy through the Human Rights Approach, we observe that the norm complies with certain principles that are inherent to this model, yet some of them are partially fulfilled. Other, though, are clearly overlooked in the original legislation. |
