Basic education
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Basic education is an essential education. It is a formal education deemed necessary for somebody to function properly in society.
Universal basic education is regarded as a priority for developing countries. Its benefits are claimed to include the reduction of disease through knowledge of hygiene and nutrition, the reduction of the illiterate population, the reduction of unwanted pregnancies, and the reduction of violence by increasing understanding of non-violent ways to solve problems and mutual understanding between groups in conflict.
The Convention on the Rights of the Children, established by UNICEF in 1989, protects children's inalienable rights by setting standards for multiple aspects, one of which is education.
