Alternative Report to the UN Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights

Submitted by PCE to the UN Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (CESCR), this alternative report scrutinises Pakistan’s record on the right to education. It examines the gap between Article 25-A and its implementation, the persistent under-funding of education, and the rapid growth of fee-charging private schools that stratify society and discriminate against the poorest families. It documents how the absence of an adequate regulatory and monitoring framework has produced a fragmented, low-quality education landscape. Produced with ASPBAE and GI-ESCR.
