Böcker av R. Brian Howe

Building on the children's rights work accomplished in their previous book, Empowering Children, Brian Howe and Katherine Covell identify three types of reform that can significantly close the educational achievement gap.

In Empowering Children, R. Brian Howe and Katherine Covell assert that educating children about their basic rights is a necessary means not only of fulfilling a country's legal obligations, but also of advancing education about democratic principles and the practice of citizenship.

The authors blend public policy analysis,historical research, and legal analysis as they address the contemporary financial, social, legal, and policy pressures currently experienced by human rights commissions across Canada.
