Justiciability of the right to education 2013, para. 23
Paragraph
Paragraph text
The right to education as provided for in article 13(2)(a), 13(3) and 13(4) of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, along with a number of other provisions, would seem to be capable of immediate application by judicial and other organs in many national legal systems. Any suggestion that the provisions indicated are inherently non-self-executing would seem to be difficult to sustain.
