Compendium on Human Rights
Education in Schools and Colleges: Need and Challenges
Human rights presuppose human rights education. It stands for respect
for human rights in a democratic and multicultural society where
tolerance and patience are inevitable for every member. It protects
the infringement of rights of racial, ethnic and religious groups
in any country, or society through inculcation of global awareness
and mutual understanding among citizens and hence, human rights
education is imperative in schools and colleges
The Compendium is the culmination of sublime thoughts and profound
ideas of some academics, researchers, activists and teachers. The
