摘要
In this article we interrogate the potential value of 'human dignity' as a tool for vernacularisation in the context of human rights education (HRE), drawing on legal higher education in Cambodia as a case study. To do so, we first outline the role of human dignity in human rights education, flagging that while the concept has been identified as a principle, goal, and tool of HRE, there has been little reflection on its diverse and contested meanings across and within different contexts. Drawing on a range of scholarship that interrogates human dignity, vernacularisation and HRE, as well as original data collected in Cambodia between 2020 and 2022, we explore the opportunities and challenges associated with using human dignity as a tool for HRE in Cambodia. We conclude by offering some reflections on the process of drafting a 'human dignity curriculum' for use in Cambodia's legal higher education.
