Vernor Muñoz believes that the real objective is the dignity The gap between rhetoric and practice human rights is similar to that between education and the right to it, as governments consider that meet this guarantee only concerned about access to formal education, Vernor Muñoz said, rapporteur for the right to education of the United Nations Organization (UNO).
"International instruments have a restricted view of education" and to limit it to this conception leaves out 800 million adults and 140 million children worldwide, afirmó.El UN rapporteur stressed that has limited the concept of education only to a sense of "mercantilist" as currently seen as a means to address the needs of employers.
"Certainly, education has a role in fighting unemployment and poverty, but not limited to, because if your goal was just to solve the employment problem became his way to the realization of a product. However, the true meaning is not the product, but man, the dignity of the person. "In a recent brief visit to Mexico, Munoz said that the educational projects must be aimed at human rights in order to sustain their ultimate goal.
"If education continues to remove his real purpose and only detract from it would create people without sensitivity to their rights and responsibilities, which are nothing more than the consciousness of the rights of others".
a bank run education.
said that public policy on education has gone astray, especially in Latin America, as they focus the problem of dropouts, when in fact one should speak of exclusion, which arises from multiple factors such as discrimination, lack of investment and economic resources, material and human, in addition to the denial of economic, social and cultural citizenship.
"No money for education there is no development for the people. If governments do not allocate sufficient budget and necessary not only for schools to operate, but that children can attend fed, clothed and provided with textbooks, our region (Latin America) will be doomed to poverty and delayed, "said the member of the UN and added that although there is talk of an investment of 6 percent of gross domestic product, the figure varies according to the problems of each country.
Another "outrages" against education as considered Muñoz, is the vision the family must cooperate with some of the costs this entails, such as quotas in public schools as a requirement for children's access to school. Amen the World Bank's involvement in the management of educational processes. "A bank is conducting education as a mechanic in charge of an operating room."
The UN rapporteur stressed that these cases have led to education "a reality drama" as it is no longer seen as a human right and is conceptualized more as a service "that can be or not may be suspended, relegated: if there is money, well, if not, sorry. This view of education as a service has other consequences, since education is outside the building projects and proactive responsible citizenship for human rights. "
stressed that the primary obligation to comply with this warranty are the states, therefore, not conceptualized as a right, can not claim citizenship in the legal field that is garantizada.Muñoz emphasized that education is not made for a person to succeed at the expense of the failure of others, "but that the companies learn to live in solidarity and the values \u200b\u200bto be rescued."
