Centro de Andlisis e lnvestigaci6n (FUNDAR), lnternational Budget Project (IBP) and the lnternational Human Rights lnternship Program (HRIP)'s Using Budget Analysis to Advance Human Rights (2004) Three organizations came together to produce a guide to using budget analysis to advance human rights: Centro de Andlisis e lnvestigaci6n (FUNDAR), an organization involved in research, analysis, education and advocacy around issues of democracy in Mexico; the lnternational Budget Project (lBP), part of the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, which assists non-governmental organizations and researchers in their efforts to analyze budget policies and improve budget processes and institutions; and the lnternational Human Rights lnternship Program (lHRlP), part of the lnstitute of lnternational Education, which facilitates the exchange of knowledge and experience among human rights organizations and between organizations in the human rights field and other fields. These organizations propose a fivestep methodology: Step 1. "Start with a 'rights frame of mind,' a perspective that considers a situation through the lens of rights, looking for rights issues and for strategies to advance rights." Step 2. "ldentify a case, a situation or a sector (e.9., health or education) of particular concern and start developing it into a full case study." Step 3. "Engage in an iterative process, starting with human rights standards, to get a fuller idea of potential rights issues. Then go in either direction-gather other data or look at budget figures. You will want in either case to identify how the government's budget could be implicated in the case/situation/sector, and do some initial budget analysis to see what light budget figures shed on the rights issues. You will likely also need to gather and analyze additional, non-budget data (e.9., statistics) to develop your fuller picture. Pull these together, return to the rights standards and do a more in-depth analysis. Follow this with a fuller budget analysis and gathering of further information. Repeat this process, until you are satisfied you have arrived at a clear picture of the case/situation/sector as well as rights and budget issues involved." Step 4. "Write up your findings." Step 5. "Develop an advocacy strategy that makes use of the findings."
