Back to: Child Rights
UNICEF is the go-to for learning about child right and the UNCRC. There resources are many and we encourage that you take a look at them.
Teaching & Learning About Child Rights Report – Here is their report on child rights implementation in 26 countries, along with some of the things they are doing in child rights education. It’s a high quality document to review at unicef_child_rights_education_study
In their Curriculum Connections pages, https://www.unicef.ca/en/our-work/article/curriculum-connections they provide details on how different UNCRC child rights articles fit into the curriculum. Here is the example from Canada, with links for how HRE can be integrated into every grade level in every province. Thank you, UNICEF!
