Impact of COVID crisis on child’s right to education
The right to education is regulated by norms of many international and regional documents. It includes many rights and plays an important role in the “all-round development of man” and its scope: physical, emotional, ethical, aesthetic, intellectual, professional, civic and interna-tional. The right to education is not the exclusive right of children. It is first and foremost the right of children and is essential for children’s development. Therefore, it is generally accepted that educational opportunities should be equal for children. Unfortunately, the right to education has been severely curtailed in a short period of time due to the COVID -19 pandemic. According to UNESCO, 191 countries have temporarily closed national or local schools to contain the spread of COVID -19. This has resulted in school-age children being unable to receive basic education.This situation is particularly difficult for children from dysfunctional or disadvantaged fami-lies. Some families do not have internet, computers or books. Some parents cannot help them with homework because of educational or language limitations. All these unequal educational opportunities limit schooling. On the way to eliminate inequality in access to education and protect children from rights violations, the author will discuss whether Rawls’ principle of fairness provides a good basis for the government to take action to eliminate unequal opportunities for education.
