Justiciability of the right to education 2013, para. 82n
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- [Bearing in mind the key importance of the justiciability of the right to education and its enforcement, and with a view to fostering protective as well as promotional role of adjudication mechanisms, the Special Rapporteur would like to offer the following recommendations:] Governments have the primary responsibility to disseminate such information. However, the media and civil society can play an important role in sharing information with disadvantaged groups, and should be engaged and supported where possible. The national education system should also inform students, teachers and parents of their respective rights and obligations, and how violations, when they arise, should be addressed, ranging from parent-teacher interviews and school administrative complaint procedures, to national human rights mechanisms and even international mechanisms where applicable. In particular, low-cost or free mechanisms, including those available through national or regional human rights bodies, UNESCO’s complaints and communication procedure, and the Optional Protocol should be made widely known.
