Summer University: Human Rights and Education– 3rd Edition

OIDEL, in collaboration with ERDIE (University of Geneva) and the Global Human Rights Clinic (Notre Dame Law School), is proud to announce the third edition of the Summer University. This international program aims to equip participants with tools to promote education as a universal human right both locally and globally.

Building on the success of previous editions, this course brings together UN officials, policy experts, civil society representatives, and students to engage in enriching discussions on educational pluralism, cultural rights, curriculum and assessment from a human rights perspective, global citizenship education, and much more.

Participants will also visit the UN Palais des Nations and UNESCO’s International Bureau on Education. In that way, the Summer University offers a unique opportunity for networking, gaining insider knowledge, and for understanding the workings of Iinternational human rights mechanisms.

Testimonials


"The Summer University was a transformative experience. I gained invaluable insights into human rights and connected with experts such as the UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Education. Because of it, I gained a deeper passion for human rights activism".
María Sol
Student in Humanities (Uruguay)

"I learnt a lot about freedom of education from a human rights perspective and about my possibilities to influence international discussions about it. Meeting with the international participants and speakers was also very valuable".
