On March 20, DR🇩🇴, LUX 🇱🇺, SL 🇸🇱, PA 🇵🇦, CO🇨🇴, NR🇳🇷, BG 🇧🇬, RO 🇷🇴, together with @hrw, @PlanGlobal & @GirlsNotBrides will discuss at #HRC55 the need for a new legal instrument on free pre-primary & secondary education. Read my dispatch for more info: rb.gy/6g59nf
Close to 4000 schools damaged or destroyed by #Russia's illegal war. We commend #Ukraine for instructing their armed forces to refrain from using schools for military purposes. Norway thanks Ukraine and our global partners committed to #SafeSchoolsDeclaration
Students and schools are under attack despite a landmark UN resolution. Millions of children in conflict zones are denied an education. Dispatch by @NSaykova: hrw.org/news/2023/10/2…
The UN #HumanRights Council just urged states "to consider" making pre-primary education free, as—shock!—fees limit low-income families' kids' access: shorturl.at/cgQST Isn't it time we recognize a right to free preschool? @hrw thinks so: tandfonline.com/share/PX8IVNK7… #HRC53
Plus de 7⃣0⃣ pays s’engagent à renforcer le droit à une éducation gratuite, de la maternelle jusqu’au cycle secondaire. 👉@BedeOnKidRights décrit pourquoi c'est important et comment les États peuvent garantir une éducation gratuite pour chaque enfant. rb.gy/zpj09
Mas de 7⃣0⃣ países se comprometieron a fortalecer la educación gratuita, desde el preescolar hasta el final de la escuela secundaria. @BedeOnKidRights describe porque es importante y y como los estados pueden garantizar educacion gratuite para cada niño. rb.gy/ddm3s
#HRC53 #SierraLeone talks about their impressive program and recent law which provide free education from pre-primary through secondary education. As a result, enrollment went 🆙 with 50%. It’s time to expand the right to education & make education free for all children!
On behalf of 66 countries, the @RDenONUGinebra🇩🇴 & #Luxembourg🇱🇺 recalled that everyone has the #RightToEducation & expressed support to efforts to strengthen this right, including the explicit right to full free secondary & at least one year of free pre-primary education.
#HRC53 6⃣6⃣countries made a strong call for strengthening the right to free education, including the explicit right to at least 1 year of free pre-primary and free secondary education. Joint statement led by @LUinGeneva & @ONUGRD 👏👏👏
At #HRC53, the special rapporteur on the right to education calls for the right to free, quality education regardless of circumstances and a new social contract recognizing education as a public good. @UN_SPExperts
Join an amazing team and an inspiring advocacy work to advocate for protection of students, educators, and educational facilities during conflict.

UN SR on Education calls on all member states to sign the #SafeSchoolsDeclaration. In her report, she urges parties to armed conflict to avoid using schools for military purpose. 🪖
Monday at #HRC53: Looking forward to this great panel on how we can strengthen the right to free education and why it's so important. With @srpoverty @dsengeh @UNESCO @MalalaFund @hrw, SR on right to education.
In January 2023, @1612Watchlist put together a policy workshop in New York to discuss with key stakeholders how to increase the protection of children affected by armed conflict. We are pleased to share the report of the activity👇

The first ever #HRC country-specific resolution to reference the Guidelines. The Myanmar military & armed groups should incorporate the Guidelines into their doctrine and practice & ensure that fighting is kept out of school grounds.

SRSG on @childreninwar presents her report to the Human Rights Council. She is concerned by the increase of attacks on schools in 2022. That's why we need more states to join the #SafeSchoolsDeclaration, now supported by 117 states with the recent endorsement by #Australia !
Australia is the 117th country to endorse the #SafeSchoolsDeclaration, an intergovernmental political commitment to protect students, teachers, and schools from attack during armed conflict. Which country will be next to join? hrw.org/news/2023/03/1…
Welcome #Australia to the safe schools family! The #SafeSchoolsDeclaration is a proven tool to save lives and safeguard education in conflict. Will @JapanMissionUN, @BangladeshUN1 and @PHMissionNY make the same commitment?

#HRC53—#Luxembourg🇱🇺 is concerned by the alarming violence against women & girls in public life. Women politicians, HRDs & journalists endure gender-based attacks targeting their dignity & rights. We must confront its systemic & patriarchal causes to achieve true #GenderEquality.
