The current UN education resolution being voted on....

Okay. Most people can see the positives of the potential resolution, but in order to be an informed voter, I would like someone to point out of the negatives if they can think of any. I can think of a few but most of them are negatives to any UN resolution and so people who have problems with those negatives, shouldn't be in the UN. (Like, the fact that your give up a bit of your autonomy in joining the UN, etc....) So, if anyone would like to, enlighten me to both sides of this poetential resolution. :D
Thanks for any and all responses.

Rather than duplicate all the arguments, could we suggest you take a peek at the main discussion thread already running:

To summarise: rightwingers don't like it because they don't want socialised education, while leftwingers don't like it because the socialised education we've got is working perfectly well and we don't want UN security guards barging into our schools, much less UN officials telling our teachers what they should be teaching.
