“The Human Rights Education Program is designed to introduce international human rights and responsibilities to K-12 students. It uses the framework of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights to help students understand and appreciate common human values, to encourage them to apply international standards to their own lives, and to support positive student action to remedy human rights violations in their own communities. This issue includes lessons on understanding human rights through music and poetry, specifically addressing the struggle against oppression throughout human history”
