BRD agrees with the UN that the basis of human rights education is the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). Its simplicity of vision causes it to be accessible to people of all ages and conditions.

BRD focuses its Human Rights Training Courses on tolerance education. It understands that our understanding of human rights contains a personal value system. This system is a mirror of the culture and region where we live. Our experience in our circles of identity, such as gender, class, religion, and family status, further defines our value system.

BRD strives to make its education participants aware of their own assumptions in this regard. It offers a specific course which teaches that if we presume that we can speak on behalf of everyone, we risk infringing on others whose rights we wish to defend.

BRD is widely involved in Human Rights Basic and Advocacy Training and Education. It is also a member of the CSO Collation for Shadow Reporting to the United Nations on Social Economic and Cultural Rights. Human rights courses conducted by BRD as follows:

       Advocacy and Human Rights Law Course
       Participatory Approach to Human Rights Education
       Gender and Development
       Basic Human Rights
       Human Rights Education for School Teachers
       Shadow Reporting on Economical, Social and Culture Rights
