ASSIGNMENT ON RIGHT TO EDUCATION - pdf1111 PDF
The right to education is a human right. A right is something to which you are
entitled, which you can claim. Having a right means that someone else has
an obligation. If someone has the right to free education, then the
government or school cannot require that you pay in order to access
education (except through a broader system of tax collection). Human rights
are universal and inalienable. They are inherent. We are born with them. They
cannot be given or taken away. Human rights are non-discriminatory, and
should not be influenced by sex, ethnicity, nationality, etc. (although special
measures, as long as they are reasonable and justifiable, can be introduced
to ensure everyone has the equal opportunity to enjoy that right). They are
the foundation of freedom, justice and peace, and are the basic standards
without which people cannot live a life of dignity. They are proclaimed in the
Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and have since been reinforced by
many legally binding international covenants and conventions, as well as
national constitutions.
Although human rights are theoretically universal and inherent they can be
denied through violations in practice. People are often unable to enjoy their
human rights because of who they are, and where they live. Discrimination is
rife in every society, limiting, for example, womens ability to participate in
public forums (or household decision-making), or preventing members
of minority groups from receiving appropriate education. Discrimination is an
abuse which prevents people from enjoying their basic human rights, and
thus undermining the very concept of a universal right.
