Özet
While international human rights instruments prohibit discrimination and exclusion; the creation of an environment that is inclusive, embracing, and participatory and ensures full development of an individual's personality is supported. Countries, being party to International human rights regulations, are obliged according to international human rights law to implement the universal, scientific and human focused education model described in these instruments. As expressed in article 26 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), "Education shall be directed to the full development of the human personality and to the strengthening of respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms." Similarly, the Council of Europe Charter on Education for Democratic Citizenship and Human Rights Education expresses that education plays a central role in the development of human rights, democracy and the rule of law, which is the main objective of the Council. Rights-based, participation and democratic education are concepts developed on the basis of a number of international human rights instruments. These concepts are the components of PANEL Analysis which stands for participation, accountability, non-discrimination, empowerment and linkages with human rights. PANEL Analysis can provide guidance in measuring and evaluating the conformity of an education system with human rights. In other words, if an education system comprises the concepts of participation, accountability, non-discriminatory, empowerment and human rights as a guide at every stage, it is more likely that such a system is rights-based.
