Abstract | This article discusses youth and adult education in a twofold perspective: that of a human right and that of human development. The first perspective is related to the concept of rights and the second perspective is related to the guarantee or negation of the right to development. In this article, the author discusses the universality of rights which is developed at two levels: a formal one, related to equality before the laws; and a real one, that is translated into state action for making it effective. The author proposes that publc policies within the area of education be deliberately directed to potential youth and adult education students who have previously had little or no schooling, and who have thereby been denied access to a healthy life. He asserts that the importance of investing in youth and adult education lies in the fact that this is an affirmative action to overcome inequalities, and that there is a universality of human right to education.
