The National Working Group for Human Rights Dissemination and Promotion (NWG) in Indonesia developed a human rights education curriculum for all age levels in both public and private schools. In order to create support for such a human rights curriculum that also encompassed religious educational institutions, an effective tactic was to engage key and respected leaders in the development and training of the human rights curriculum.

In this notebook we learn about an Albanian organization that seized an opportunity to integrate human rights into the public education system.  The Albanian Center for Human Rights worked with the new democratic government in the post- communist transition period and successfully introduced human rights education into the public  curriculum.  This was an effort to prepare Albanians for their transition to democracy.
