Report on the Post-2015 Education Agenda 2013, para. 109
- Paragraph text
- Guided by a rights-based approach, education goals should be formulated as entitlements, with the corresponding responsibility of Governments to their citizens to deliver on the goals and targets. Thus, the education agenda should be devised along the lines of rights-holders and duty-bearers: rights-holders include children, youth and adults who are entitled to receive or equitably access available education programmes; duty-bearers include Governments, or partners that assist Governments in their obligation to provide the policies, programmes and institutions that implement the right to education. As primary duty-bearers for the realization of the right to education, Governments are first and foremost responsible for providing a national education system that lives up to their commitments.
