Abstract

The right to education is one of the fundamental human rights that all persons should enjoy without discrimination. This right has been emphasized in various human rights documents. Thus, gender inequality in education is explicit breach of this right. The present paper, seek to relevant human rights frameworks consisted of international treaties, reports of human rights bodies and States practices, concludes that the nature of the commitment to educational equality is de juré, that breach of this will create international responsibility for countries. These obligations do not have a negative nature, but rather direct and regulate the behavior of States in balance with their positive nature. In fact, these commitments not only overcome the barriers women face in exercising this right, but also provide the grounds for their realization and while identifying the problem of gender inequality, fights it. In all legislative and executive fields, countries committed on the creation of defined frameworks for the elimination of discrimination and guarantee the women's rights in education.
