A/HRC/30/24 was not mandatory for advancement. Jordan reported on its five-year plan for teachers, supervisors and school principals to participate in workshops on human rights concepts, the preparation of learning activities for curricula specialists and textbook writers, while noting that it still lacked the resources necessary to carry out the plan. Special attention is paid to specific human rights issues during in-service training, as relevant in the particular national context, including gender, equality and child rights (Republic of Moldova, Sudan, Italy); HIV/AIDS and gender-based violence (Botswana); anti-gypsyism (Germany); female genital mutilation (Gambia); and trafficking in persons (Ukraine). 20. There appeared to be a variety of opportunities for cooperation with other Governments, international organizations and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in human rights training initiatives for teachers. Bosnia and Herzegovina reported on its work with the NGO, Civitas, to train some 30,000 teachers across the country, develop new curricula and publish a university textbook on democracy and human rights. Georgia reported earlier on similar work, in cooperation with the United States Agency for International Development and other partners. Honduras had developed a comprehensive plan, with support from the European Union, the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) and others, with human resources from a range of national actors, including the Honduras Autonomous University and the State Secretariat in the Education Office. B. Human rights training for civil servants 21. Human rights is a core element in mandatory training for civil servants in a number of reporting States, including for new recruits (for example, in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Turkey), civil servants at all levels (for example, in Colombia, Germany and Sweden) and top managers in public administration (for example, in Slovenia). Although not mandatory, human rights are a priority area for the training of civil servants in Romania. Under the Swiss Constitution, anyone working for the State is obliged to contribute to the protection of human rights. In 2010–2011, in drawing up guidelines for the education and training of civil servants, the Ministry of Public Administration and Security of the Republic of Korea included human rights in the mandatory training for civil servants. Australia established a human rights public- sector education programme to strengthen capacity for developing policies, programmes and legislation consistent with human rights and to guide administrative decision-makers on human rights issues. Andorra set up human rights training courses for public servants in line with the World Programme. In China, the Central Party School and education units at all levels have universally incorporated human rights in their curricula and conduct human rights education for leading officials of all ranks. 22. The States indicated that human rights training was being extended to staff and officials in many different agencies of central and local government, including the Departments of Foreign Affairs, Internal Affairs, Justice and Education as well as sociocultural advisers, family centre coordinators and education directors in communes, in Burundi, and staff of the State Secretariats for Agriculture and Farming, Forestry Conservation and Public Works, Transport and Housing, in Honduras. In Mexico, thousands of civil servants at the federal and local levels have been trained on the contents and scope of the 2011 constitutional human rights reform. While there is no institutionalized human rights training for civil servants in Guinea, seminars and workshops are organized for regional governors, prefects, teachers and mayors in specific contexts, for example, elections, national reconciliation and transitional justice programmes and local development. Guinea further identified the need for action plans for human rights training, in particular for civil servants working in the areas of health, finance, land administration and decentralization. In its latest report under the universal periodic review, the Lao People’s Democratic Republic highlighted its efforts to build human rights capacity among 7
