| Abstract | Human rights have advanced to an important category of peace and international politics in recent decades. The reference document for human rights is the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), which emphasizes, among other things, the relevance of human rights education. However, this topic has been largely neglected in empirical research until now. Peace psychology might contribute to a better understanding of human rights education. The present article examines effects of human rights education on knowledge, attitudes, and commitment concerning human rights. 3 university seminars dealing with human rights as 1 of 2 principal topics formed the background for 3 quasi-experimental studies with pre-/posttest designs. 43 native German students participated in all 3 surveys. All studies demonstrate that even short-term human rights education can increase the knowledge about human rights and enhance positive attitudes and commitment concerning human rights. The discussion stresses the importance of further empirical studies on human rights education for a culture of peace. (ZPID). |
