An educational and civic policy that will, by 2016, cover the integration and teaching of human rights in the Gabonese education system (primary, secondary and higher). With this in mind, in July 2005, Gabon adopted the Action Plan for 2005-2009 of the World Programme for Human Rights Education, which focuses on the national school system. Representatives of the Government and the National Human Rights Commission reaffirmed this commitment during the workshop on human rights education in Brazzaville on 11 and 12 June 2010, which was organized for countries in Central Africa by the African Union Commission.
