Welcome to UNICEF Canada's Rights Respecting Schools Initiative UNICEF Canada Rights Respecting Schools

We invite you to explore UNICEF Canada's exciting new school initiative: Rights Respecting Schools.

Educators, parents and students are discovering the transformative nature of this innovative and holistic school-wide initiative.

With an engaging and hands-on program grounded in children's rights, the Rights Respecting Schools Initiative enriches school culture in a way that is directly connected to the work schools are already doing. It is not an add-on initiative but rather one that richly enhances a school's current programming and rights-respecting culture.

Through a consistent rights-respecting approach to policy, decision-making, school and classroom programming, schools are learning about the importance of rights and the responsibilities that accompany them.
