More DescriptionWUS's annual survey on educational rights, academic freedom and institutional autonomy has helped to win their recognition as rights, not privileges, and as necessary preconditions for democracy and development. The third volume in this series of 'state of the university' reports on human rights updates the situation internationally. It reports on the implementation of educational rights at primary and secondary levels, and focuses on the educational rights of girls and women, ethnic and religious minorities. It includes an overview of the UN mechanisms that monitor educational rights, and offers guidance for NGOs and individuals in monitoring and reporting on educational rights.
