Abstract This essay attempts to capture the human rights implications of COVID-19, and responses to it, in the city of York (UK). Three human rights contributions are identified: ensuring that responses enhance dignity, the right to life, non-discrimination, and protect the most vulnerable; using human rights when balancing priorities and making difficult decisions; and optimizing the link between disease and democracy. The overarching aim is to localize and contextualize human rights in a meaningful way in the city, and thereby to provide meaningful guidance to the City Council and statutory agencies when implementing the difficult measures required by the pandemic, and to support civil society advocacy and monitoring. This work, led by the York Human Rights City (YHRC) network, illustrates the value of a localized ‘thick description’ of human rights and the multi-dimensional picture of challenges, innovations and solutions facilitated by such an approach.

COVID-19 的影响和应对:约克市的人权本地化(英国)



摘要 本文试图探讨英国约克市 COVID-19 的人权影响及其应对措施。确定了三项人权贡献:确保应对措施增强尊严、生命权、不歧视和保护最弱势群体;在平衡优先事项和做出艰难决定时利用人权;优化疾病与民主之间的联系。总体目标是在城市中以有意义的方式将人权本地化和背景化,从而在实施大流行所需的困难措施时为市议会和法定机构提供有意义的指导,并支持民间社会的倡导和监督。这项工作由约克人权城 (YHRC) 网络牵头,阐释了对人权进行本地化“深度描述”的价值,以及通过这种方法促进的挑战、创新和解决方案的多维图景。
