Abstract

‘... ‘Human rights can sometimes seem a somewhat removed topic in our professional and personal lives. Yet this book shows how they contribute profoundly to the ethical framework underpinning Australian education.’- Christopher Newell & Baden Offord

‘...it is from good leadership of educators that the defences of peace will be built in the minds and hearts of all Australians. This book is a valuable contribution to that process.’ The Hon. Justice Michael Kirby AC
