Dear Supporters of Rights-Centric Education
The Learning Planet Festival begins this week with many events by people aiming to bring education into alignment with human rights. Our goals with the Festival are to leave the speakers feeling well supported and to provide a show of strength and unity at this early stage of developing the Rights-Centric Education Network – RCEN. People are therefore being asked to participate in the Festival as much as they can as if it were an in-person conference.
At the end of each event, inform participants of upcoming events and extends invitations for people to join them.

With fingers crossed that the Festival will generate the enthusiasm and energy needed to create a major happening around next November 20th, the day to celebrate the ratification of the Convention on the Rights of the Child,
