Hello everyone. I am

Hello everyone. I am researcher with an interest in human right to education. I am also hard of hearing teacher so the question of human right to education is something I have become an expert by learning from my own case.

In my eperience, when i underwent training - educating for human right at my university, I was suprised to learn that even in modern so called democratic world we people are not aware that the human right is something that no one take it away from us. we own it from the day we were born. they were not given to us by the governments. Sad but true.

What i am concerned with is while we do have extensive existing legislation, what we do not have is the methodologies to expose the flaws in the system. Even Tomasevski pointed out during her research at the lack of methodologies expecially qualitative. So what is lacking is the set of robust qualitative methodologies that could be applied to expose the flaws in the system. During my doctoral studies this problem motivated me to work on the novel research approach to qualitative data collection though storyteling. As we all know stories can be very powerful tool yet there is a lack of transparent method to record these stories. As some fo you pointed out, when we expose discrimination or abuse of the human right, we do need to ensure that we do it in transparent way. In this way it can be used to create this much needed link that will bring the individual case to the attention of the legal system. Good wishes to al of you..
