Description
Empowering disenfranchised involves actively increasing the agency, resources, and participation of marginalized groups in decision-making processes. This strategy focuses on removing barriers to social, economic, and political inclusion by providing access to education, legal support, and community organization. Practical actions include advocacy, capacity-building, and ensuring representation, thereby remedying exclusion, discrimination, and powerlessness, and enabling affected individuals or communities to assert their rights and influence outcomes that impact their lives.
Implementation
UN-sponsored international years and conferences have caused governments to recognize the needs and contributions of groups usually excluded from decision-making, such as the aging, children, youth, homeless, disabled, as well as indigenous peoples and women.
