OSCE organizes human rights training for secondary school teachers in Khorog
From 15 to 16 September, the Programme Office in Dushanbe (the Office) supported the Office of the Human Rights Commissioner in organizing a two-day training on Human Rights. The training brought together 20 (19 women and 1 man) human rights teachers from secondary schools of Khorog (GBAO) and surrounding areas.
Two national trainers (both male) provided the training which was focused on enabling the participants to learn about both international and national human rights standards. Participants also familiarized themselves with new pedagogical methods for teaching human rights curricula in secondary schools. It was the third of three such events which the Office supported in 2023.
The activity is a component of the State Programme on Human Rights Education under the Office of the Human Rights Commissioner. It is part of OSCE’s broader work in strengthening and promoting the protection of human rights including by providing technical support to human rights bodies.
