NAVA-PRECIADO, José María y MENDEZ-HUERTA, Mauricio. Adolescents and human rights: an approximation of the effective exercising of rights in school. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2019, vol.17, n.1, pp.285-299. ISSN 1692-715X. https://doi.org/10.11600/1692715x.17117.
This paper is part of a research study aimed at analyzing the knowledge of male and female students and teachers on the effective application of the General Law for the Rights of Children and Adolescents in the school, three years after this law came into effect in Mexico. This was a qualitative study implemented in public junior high schools in the city of Guadalajara. The information was obtained through holding six discussion groups with adolescent students and conducting a questionnaire survey with 84 teachers. The results indicate that ignorance of the law is highly linked with the non-effective exercising of children and adolescents’ human rights. The study shows that as the amount of misleading information provided to students increases, it is more probable that teaching staff violate the rights of this population in the classroom, and male and female students have less capacity to demand the fulfilling of their rights.
