Language Education and Human Rights in Democratic Educational Settings

Language education plays a role in human rights within democratic educational settings, where inclusivity and equality are foundational principles. Access to quality language education empowers individuals to participate in society, exercise their rights, and preserve their cultural and linguistic identities. In multilingual and multicultural democracies, ensuring all students can learn languages promotes social cohesion and educational equality. Language education is imperative to human rights, supporting the broader goals of democracy, diversity, and justice in education. Language Education and Human Rights in Democratic Educational Settings explores the critical role of language at all levels of education and its profound impact on the human rights of plurilingual students. By examining the social, pedagogical and legal dimensions of language rights, it highlights how equitable language policies can empower students, foster inclusion, and ensure their right to a democratic education that respects and values their linguistic and cultural identities. This book covers topics such as democracy, artificial intelligence, and language rights, and is a useful resource for educators, sociologists, policymakers, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
