Human rights education (HRE) is the learning process that seeks to build up knowledge, values, and proficiency in the rights that each person is entitled to. This education teaches students to examine their own experiences from a point of view that enables them to integrate these concepts into their values, decision-making, and daily situations.^[1] According to Amnesty International, HRE is a way to empower people, training them so their skills and behaviors will promote dignity and equality within their communities, societies, and throughout the world.^[2]

The "National Economics and Social Rights Initiative" stated the importance of Non-Discrimination in HRE. Governments must ensure that it is exercised without bias to race, gender, color, religion, language, national or social origin, political or personal opinion, birth, or any status. All students, parents and communities possess the right to take part in decisions affecting their respective schools and the right to education.^[3]
