Abstract

The human behavior course is an ideal venue for delivery of human rights content, since the human rights philosophy and the person-in-environment perspective align with each other. With the goal of supporting efforts to meet the human rights competency in the most recent version of accreditation standards, this manuscript describes the three core concepts of the human rights philosophy and their relevance for the micro, mezzo, and macrolevels of the person-in-environment perspective. Further, the benefits and challenges of integrating these three concepts in the human behavior course are discussed. © 2012 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.
