Abstract

 

Good governance and human rights are mutually reinforcing. Human rights principles provide a set of values to guide the work of Governments and other political and social actors. Moreover, human rights principles inform the content of good governance efforts: they may inform the development of legislative frameworks, policies, programmes, budgetary allocations and other measures. Without good governance, human rights cannot be respected and protected in a sustainable manner. The implementation of human rights relies on a conducive and enabling environment. This includes appropriate legal frameworks and institutions as well as political, managerial and administrative processes responsible for responding to the rights and needs of the population. In Ethiopia the issues of human rights and good governance traced on the 1991 Transitional charter. And also, Ethiopia has signed different international conventions like UDHR, and setting up a national institutional mechanism for the promotion, Protection, and implementation of human rights, like; Bill of rights, Human right commission and Institution of Ombudsman.
