Abstract
The United Nations Declaration on Human Rights Education and Training (2011) is the first instrument in which international standards for human rights education are officially proclaimed by the United Nations. Most importantly, it contains a framework of key components necessary for the provision of holistic human rights education – education about, through and for human rights. This article highlights the usefulness of this framework for assessing and comparing state practice in the provision of human rights education. But it argues that comprehensive and effective national strategies for human rights education are likely to follow only from more detailed guidance and support for states at the international level.
