The United Nations (UN) declared 1995-2004 the Decade for Human Rights Education (HRE); as a follow-up, a HRE World Program (2005-2009) was initiated, aiming at the support and development of sustainable national strategies and programs in HRE. Many higher education institutions and universities seized upon the opportunity and infused their curricula with the philosophy and principles of HRE. HRE is a type of education that promotes training, dissemination, and information efforts aiming at building a universal culture of human rights (HR) by imparting knowledge and skills and shaping attitudes. This paper presents a thorough quantitative content analysis of a descriptive assessment of HRE in all Greek Pedagogical Departments’ (GPD) Undergraduate Programs of Study (PS), where future Primary School Teachers (PST) and Preschool Educators (PE) are educated. A review of course titles and descriptions of the 19 PS of GPD was conducted to identify HR content. The results suggest that HR content is present in a variety of GPD courses. It is especially evident in 17 courses. The question arising and discussed is whether the attendance of such courses can lead to a robust and consistent implementation of HRE. Recommendations for further development of HRE in Pedagogical Departments (PD) are provided. Key words: Greek pedagogical departments, human rights education, programs of study, training of primary school teachers and preschool educators.

AbstractAs a part of the Art Education course, students of the primary school education develop competences in Art Education, Social Entrepreneurship Education and Human Rights Education (one sequence). For the students, a learning environment is created which is characterized by an artistic approach and input as well as by cooperative teamwork in the field of Social Entrepreneurship Education (SEE) and Human Rights Education (HRE). The focus lies on the development of creativity and on the awareness of sustainability as well as the experience of self-efficacy and the fostering of strategies that enable a change of perspective in order to arrive at innovative ideas. Common objectives of the three educational disciplines and connecting points within these three areas are analyzed.
