It employed a web-based research methodology to identify web pages and resources related to human rights education for analysis. Through a process of descriptive and thematic coding of the web pages and documents, a range of insights about the nature of human rights educational resources and opportunities in Australia have been generated. Based on that data, in addition to review of relevant literature and the expertise of the project team, a series of recommendations about future human rights education which could be offered by the Australian Human Rights Commission have been developed. In summary, we propose that best practice in human rights education would reflect the following 4 principles. The data which we collected suggests that the existing human rights education landscape does not consistently reflect these principles. Instead, relatively few human rights educational materials appear to utilise appropriate active or transformative learning opportunities, or incorporate voices with lived experience. In addition, most human rights education outside of the formal education sector (primary through tertiary) appears to be relatively intermittent and patchy, without the possibility of progressively scaffolded acquisition of knowledge or skills. There is therefore significant opportunity for the AHRC to make a meaningful contribution to the human rights education landscape in Australia.enCopyright status unknownhuman rights education; best practiceReport743713Hewitt, A.
