Teacher Resources
Teachers and Human Rights Education (2010), by Audrey Osler and Hugh Starkey, is a book written for educators and explores the importance of human rights in relation to the daily work of teachers. This book is divided into three parts: Human rights: an agenda for action, Politics, cultures and inequalities, and Human rights and democracy in schools. Teachers and Human Rights Education (2010) utilizes global exemplars to demonstrate how schools may inspire and mobilize students to engage in social justice and peace building within a local and global context. Osler and Starkey incorporate references to numerous United Nations instruments and treaties (i.e. Convention on the Rights of the Child, UN Human Rights Declaration).
