Student Human Rights Ordinance (Korean학생인권조례) is an ordinance in operation in some cities and provinces in South Korea. It first began in Gyeonggi-do Province (2010) and expanded to Gwangju (2011), Seoul (2012), the North Jeolla Province (2013), the South Chungcheong Province (2020, later revoked in 2024),[1] and Jeju Province (2021). In 2019, South Gyeongsang Province proposed a bill as well, but it was finally rejected after being met by strong opposition from Christian groups.[2][3] The primary objective of the ordinance is to extend human rights protection for students and youth in South Korea.[4]
