Description
Learning. Teaching. Education is a human right. When exploring education as a human right in this episode of Humans on Rights, Mitchell DeFehr, education coordinator for MARL, discusses the importance of human rights learning when we reference the “other”. He shares his views about how systems developed by those of privilege are systems that oppress the “other”. And he explains how to use education as a human right from an “inside out” approach as well as an “outside in” approach to change those systems. Is there a difference between academic learning versus lived experience when it comes to human rights education? Is peaceful protest a form of human rights education? What is performative protest? Mitchell DeFehr talks about his passion about how to make things better and increase human dignity.
