Although there appears to be a growing interest in exploring the crossroads between spirituality and social change, spirituality remains a relatively obscure topic within mainstream international human rights. This article will explore what a more spiritual grounding for human rights might look like and how it might change perspectives and practices from the comparatively conventional and mainstream. I argue that viewing conventional human rights thinking, policy, and practice through the lens of spirituality can facilitate a better and more balanced reading of the human rights corpus, and ultimately, better and more sustainable human rights practice. While no panacea, spiritual perspectives that enhance a sense of interconnectedness and inclusionary identity may be one way of re-invigorating the human rights project at a time when it is said to be in a state of crisis.
