ABSTRACT

Until now, the issues of the socially underprivileged and minorities in Korean society have been focused on the disabled and women. With the advent of a multicultural society, human rights issues for foreign migrants such as marriage migrants, migrant workers, and North Korean defectors have emerged. In addition, the human rights of the socially underprivileged and minorities have been dealt with in various areas, ranging from prostitution women, sexual minorities, prisoners, non-regular workers, and North Korean defectors. Although society is transforming into a society that recognizes the diversity of actors, including minorities, there is still a discrepancy between institutions and reality regarding the issues of the socially underprivileged and minorities. To solve this problem, it is important to ensure that an atmosphere is formed in which the social majority recognizes and tolerates minorities, and that differences are not discriminated based on the fact that humans are all equal and dignified beings. It is necessary to educate the disabled or migrants through perspective of equal human beings, not compassion and discriminatory views, and to solve problems from a human rights perspective, not a hatred and exclusive view of homosexuals. It is important to conduct human rights education so that human rights violations do not occur against them only from the perspective of the general public. Human rights education for the socially underprivileged and minorities that can be overlooked in the human rights system built around the majority should be provided, and equal human rights should be protected as all dignified beings.
