Privatization and the right to education 2014, para. 65 | Aug 19, 2019 | Paragraph | The provision of basic education free of cost is not only a core obligation of States, but also a moral imperative. Social protests against exorbitant fee increases in education, especially in privatized higher education, are well known. In 2011, Chile became a glaring example of sacrificing social interest in education in favour of privatization; protests against privatization demanding an end to for-profit educational institutions that involved high costs for students were violently suppressed by police forces, resulting in the killing of a student. | Special Rapporteur on the right to education | Special Procedures' report |
