Invest in Education and Justice to Strengthen Rule of Law

In the local area, Human Rights Watch is emphasizing the importance of education and justice. A recent UNESCO report highlights the role of education in empowering children and communities to access their human rights. Education can also help uphold the rule of law, particularly in areas where it is declining. Human Rights Watch has documented the negative consequences of restricting teachers' ability to provide quality education. Further details on this issue are available from Human Rights Watch, including information on discriminatory laws affecting school curricula in certain regions.
