UN report on education

The United Nation Human Rights Report on edcation in detentions has been published and discussed at the Councils 11th meeting in April 2009.

The report is submitted in accordance with Human Rights Council resolution 8/4. The Rapporteur decided to devote the report to the question of the right to education of persons in detention, a group subject to discrimination generally and to discrimination in the provision of education specifically. Learning in prison through educational programmes is generally considered to have an impact on recidivism, reintegration and, more specifically, employment outcomes upon release. Education is however much more than a tool for change; it is an imperative in its own right.
