Introduction
The values of human rights, such as dignity, equality, inclusiveness and non-discrimination, have long been discussed by the nations of the world. Current international principles require societies to respect, defend and advocate for human rights. There are agreements and declarations amongst members of the international community regarding the fulfillment of a human rights program. Powerful and prominent international instruments exist to secure universal human rights and these instruments highlight the critical role that human rights education plays for developing a human rights culture.
Human rights education (HRE) is a lifelong learning process that builds knowledge and skills, as well as attitudes and behaviors, which uphold human rights.
