Abstract

This article analyzes the potential of Human Rights education to improve the well-being of society and reduce social injustice. The social entities can develop an important role in educational centers through educational actions based on their own experiences. This reflection is linked to the experience of the Pro-Human Rights Association of Andalusia (APDHA) in secondary schools in the Bay of Cádiz and La Janda, developing sensibilization actions. It is described the work carried out during the last six years; Since 2014, more than 15,000 students from 50 secondary schools in the province of Cadiz have participated in its programs. The accumulated expertise over the years highlights the importance of the collaboration between third sector entities and educational spaces, thus contributing to the strengthening of community networks. Finally, it reflects about the paper of social entities to promoting a greater social commitment among the students and in the case of the schools with the Culture of Peace and democratic participation.
