SUMMARY:The Politics of Human Rights and Peace Education in Southeast Asia
LOCATION:Room 1.101
DESCRIPTION:The protection of human rights, conflict transformation, and bu
 ilding of peace in Southeast Asia are far from being the norm in terms of g
 overnance, law making, and even in the everyday life of its peoples. The so
 cio-political problems in the region are deep and far ranging, with some co
 untries having more serious rights violation than others. What is alarming 
 is the popularity of governments that are blatantly authoritarian and popul
 ist. This reflects a non-appreciation of human rights and peace, not only o
 n the part of states, but perhaps, far worse, on the part of many people.\n
 \nHuman rights and peace education aim to help students develop an understa
 nding and appreciation of human rights and peace. Moreover, it leads to bui
 lding capacities for students to contribute to the protection of human righ
 ts and creation of peace in their respective societies and/or communities. 
 Although Human Rights and Peace education is included in ASEAN Vision 2025 
 and is part and parcel of the Association of Southeast asian Nation (ASEAN)
 ’s Culture of Prevention, human rights and peace education is still lacking
 , or is still not included in learning systems in many parts of Southeast A
 sia. A significant number of higher education institutions and academics ar
 e struggling to push for its full promotion due to (1) restrictive politica
 l climate, (2) low demand for subjects or programmes, (3) the lack of fundi
 ng and human resources, (4) social and structural challenges, (5) marginali
 zation of human rights and peace by States and non-state actors, most notab
 le university administrations.\n\nThis panel will identify and examine the 
 impacts of the socio-political environment affecting the delivery of existi
 ng human rights and peace courses and programmes in higher education instit
 utions. Researchers of Indonesia, Myanmar, Philippines, and Timor Leste wil
 l provide a deeper analysis of the situation in these countries.
