Founded in 2011, Human Rights Educators USA (HRE USA) is a growing network dedicated to building a culture of human rights by providing an innovative forum for HRE practitioners and supporters to learn, network, and exchange professional expertise and better serve the HRE community.

HRE USA is guided by the core human rights principles of human dignity, equality, and non-discrimination, within the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights. We believe that effective human rights education is transformative: it empowers individuals and communities and promotes the respect for and embodiment of these values in daily life.

To fulfill our mission, we work alongside our members and partners to build a national movement for human rights education, advocate for the integration of international human rights standards into educational systems and promote supportive national and regional policies. We aim to embed human rights education in curricula, teacher training, and pedagogy by developing resources for educators and contributing to research in the field.

Human Rights Begin with Education: 2025 End-of-Year Campaign

At Human Rights Educators USA (HRE USA), we believe that human rights education is foundational to achieving justice, dignity, and equity for all. When individuals understand their human rights, they are equipped to challenge injustice and build a more equitable world. This year, we are proud to launch our 2025 End-of-Year Campaign: Human Rights Begin with Education . In an era when human rights are increasingly under threat, our campaign is dedicated to fostering a committed network of human rights learners and educators across the country. Guided by the principles enshrined in landmark human rights documents such as the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), our work seeks to empower everyone to recognize and defend their human rights. We are aiming to raise $15,000 by the new year to sustain and strengthen our vibrant network for our 15th Anniversary in 2026!
