If judged only by our participation in the oral argument at the Constitutional Court, the court
decisions and our views on international human rights standards are generally consistent.
Please refer to “Participation in the Procedure of the Constitutional Court” in Part II for the

Carrying out a full inspection of the status of implementation of human rights
education in primary and secondary education for the first time
For a comprehensive understanding of the promotion and implementation of human
rights education undertaken in Taiwan, and for ensuring Taiwan’s human rights education
policies are in compliance with international standards, we teamed up with the National
Academy for Educational Research in November 2021 to conduct interviews and
questionnaire surveys across Taiwan. The investigation taken was under the framework
and assessment principles of the UN’s first phase (2005–2009) of the World Programme for
Human Rights Education and Human Rights Education in Primary and Secondary School
Systems: A Self-assessment Guide for Governments. After seven and a half months, we
completed the first systemic analysis and made preliminary recommendations for planning
future human rights education policies.

Pushing the legislature to include “administrative wrongs” through amendment
for the MOJ to pass the political rehabilitation of Lin Shui-chuan for the first time
In Taiwan the political rehabilitation and compensation of victims began after the abolition
of the martial law in 1987. Due to the limited applicability to judicial cases only, many
political victims, such as Mr. Lin Shui-chuan ( 林水泉 ), who were directly transferred to the
reformatory facilities on Liuqiu Island after being reported as hooligan by the police in
accordance with the Anti-Hooligan Ordinances for the Period of Communist Rebellion ( 動
員戡亂時期檢肅流氓條例 ) were deprived from political rehabilitation.
