Human Rights Day Concert and March for Quality Education

Home | Human Rights Day Concert and March for Quality Education

20,000 learners, parents, community members and activists march on Parliament with Equal Education for a Quality Education, demanding the Minister of Basic Education to adopt Minimum Norms and Standards for School Infrastructure.

This march was part of Equal Education's on-going campaign which has focussed on key infrastructure, including school libraries. Minister Angie Motshekga wrote to EE promising Minimum Norms & Standards for School Infrastructure by 1 April 2011. The purpose of this march was to ensure that the Minister understands that we expect her to keep her promise.

We are a leader in youth leadership development. Our campaigns are informed by the experiences of EE members and by policy analysis. We build understanding of the education system, while drawing attention to problems faced by schools and their communities. EE offers a new way to participate in the democratic system and bring change to education and society.
