Art 14 “Freedom of Thought, Conscience and Religion”
From Rights-Centric Education
These are the proposed articles in the Pledge for Rights-Centric Education relating to Article 14 "Freedom of Thought, Conscience and Religion"
- THIS IS STILL ROUGH Recognizing that social constructs impose certain religious or philosophical views on the Child, commit to support the Child's freedom to believe in a religion of their choice, or no religion at all, regardless of the religious beliefs of the Child's parents, the denominational nature of the institution, or the dominant/official religion of the state.
- Where the Child’s professed religion is marginalized or stigmatized, the child should be provided with additional supports to enable them to exercise this Right.
