The Role of Local Human Rights Commissions in Strengthening Human Rights Education at Local Governments

YOON Daeki

The National Human Rights Commission of Korea views human rights education as a fundamental and universal right of human beings and defines it as an array of educational efforts to enable people to know their rights, educate them on the behavioral framework and skills needed for respecting and protecting human rights, and instill respect for human rights in them.

Human rights education is defined as an education on, by, and through human rights, and its ultimate goals include a universal guarantee of human rights, an unbiased frame of respect for human rights that applies even to issues that are limited to certain societies, and the establishment of a culture of human rights.
