Education system is the best mechanism to integrate fundamental values of human rights and principles in any country. Human rights can only be achieved through an informed and continued demand by people for their protection.

Human rights education promotes values, beliefs and attitudes that encourage all individuals to uphold their own rights and those of others. The resulting confluence of peoples and cultures is an increasingly global, multicultural world brimming with tension, confusion and conflict in the process of its adjustment to pluralism. (jacket)
