SELF ACTUALIZATION
AND PRIMARY EDUCATION
AS A HUMAN RIGHT
PRODUCTIVE CITIZENRY

by the people in general. It is everyone
participating in the development of the area
for everyone‘s benefit. This means that
more people are working and providing for
their family. This could be done to provide
useful products which could be used for
trading.
SELF-ACTUALIZATION
Pertains to the point within someone‘s life
when an individual realizes who and what
he or she really is. It is the moment of
clarity when it comes to knowing your
abilities, purpose, goals, and limits. It is
basically gives a clear path and direction to
your life.
PRIMARY EDUCATION AS A
HUMAN RIGHT
Those living in modern times, do deserve
Primary Education, and to deprive a child of
this important stage would be cruelty, as it
would rob him of many opportunities in life.
Primary education forms the basic
foundation for a person to function well
within society, so yet is a human right.
