HREA - A new Portal for Human Rights Schools
DIRITTI UMANI |
The CRC calls for all children to be treated with dignity and respect. In the context of schooling this means:
• access to a quality education;
• children’s active participation in the life of the school;
• protection from all forms of abuse that may occur in the school setting;
• the provision of human rights education.
HREA has compiled a wealth of resources on the human rights-based approach to schooling, which can be found in this new Portal. Its aims are:
• to provide viewpoints on the theoretical underpinnings of the HRBA;
• to present a range of HRBA practices that are emerging in schools worldwide;
• to encourage "best practices" in the documentation and evaluation of the HRBA by sharing resources dedicated to examining the most pressing issues in evaluating human rights education.
