Is education a human right? In this speech, Mburu explains how education is not only a human right, but an indispensable means of realizing other human rights. Using historical evidence to back up his argument, Mburu analyzes the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), which he believes to be the world’s most influential human rights instrument. Within this Declaration, the recognition of education as a fundamental human right under international law is not in doubt. Therefore, as an empowerment right, education is the primary vehicle by which economically and socially marginalized adults and children can lift themselves out of poverty and participate fully in their communities. This means the protection and promotion of the right to education is the responsibility of all, but it is mainly the responsibility of governments. Ensuring the enjoyment of the right to education by all children all over the world is therefore a global solution to a key and pressing global problem, that of lack of durable peace.
