The paper offers a comprehensive analysis of the monitoring mechanism of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities adopted in 2006. It presents the structure of the Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities which monitors implementation of the treaty by the States Parties and its monitoring tools, i.e. mandate to examine reports of the States Parties, to consider individual communications and to conduct inquiries. It indicates that, even though the monitoring mechanism of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities is based foremost on elements typical for other, more embedded UN human rights treaty bodies, it also owns its specific, innovative characteristics. These novelties are related to the particular needs of beneficiaries of the treaty and attempts to improve the monitoring procedures.

Violence against women, in particular domestic violence, is a form of discrimination against women and a human rights violation, which has been voiced in recent years by international human rights bodies, including the UN Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women and the European Court of Human Rights. The Council of Europe Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and domestic violence, which was adopted on 7th April 2011, derives from this output. The Convention, being a milestone in combating violence against women, creates a comprehensive legal framework to prevent violence, to protect victims and to end with the impunity of perpetrators. The paper aims to examine and clarify the main obligations of the State Parties to this treaty. The core part of the study analyzes the obligation to define and criminalise various forms of violence against women (such as physical, psychological and sexual violence, stalking, forced marriage, female genital mutilation, forced abortion and forced sterilisation, sexual harassment). It also focuses on obligations linked to investigation and prosecution of these crimes. Special attention is paid to protective measures such as restraining or protection orders. Another major objective of the paper is to indicate the most significant consequences to the Polish legal order in case of Poland’s accession to the treaty. Despite taking part in the drafting process, Poland did not finally sign up the Convention. However, the Polish government takes into account a possibility of its ratification. In Author’s opinion, Poland’s accession to this treaty is highly advisable. What is more, only few provisions of the present Polish law would demand to be conformed to the Convention.

Celem niniejszego artykułu jest odpowiedź na pytanie, czy i w jakim zakresie prawo międzynarodowe i europejskie nakłada na Polskę obowiązek eliminacji stereotypów związanych z płcią poprzez odpowiednie kształtowanie programów nauczania oraz treści podręczników szkolnych, a także czy normy międzynarodowe formułują wobec Polski obowiązek prowadzenia edukacji na rzecz równości płci. Przedmiot badań i analizy stanowią zarówno umowy międzynarodowe, jak i dokumenty o charakterze prawnie niewiążącym, przyjęte na różnych poziomach współpracy międzynarodowej: pod auspicjami ONZ, w ramach Rady Europy, a także przez OECD. Ze względu na jego specyfikę, odrębnej analizie poddano regulacje pierwotnego i wtórnego prawa Unii Europejskiej, także i w tym wypadku zwracając uwagę na regulacje niewiążące. Objęcie zakresem badań standardów sformułowanych pod auspicjami trzech głównych podmiotów kształtujących prawnomiędzynarodowe zobowiązania Polski w obrębie szeroko pojętej problematyki równości płci w edukacji, tj. ONZ, Rady Europy i Unii Europejskiej umożliwiło dokonanie kompleksowej rekonstrukcji obowiązków nałożonych na Polskę przez prawo międzynarodowe i europejskie w badanym obszarze.

The purpose of this article is to answer the question whether, and to what extent, international law and the European Union law imposes on Poland the obligation to eliminate gender stereotypes, by curriculum development and proper formation of textbooks, and whether international standards require Poland to provide education on gender equality. The subject of this research and analysis represent both international agreements and non-binding documents adopted at different levels of international cooperation: under the auspices of the UN, the Council of Europe, as well as by the OECD. Due to its specificity, separate analysis has been conducted on primary and secondary European Union law and also in this case, the attention has been drawn up to non-binding regulations. By analysing standards within the broader issue of gender equality in education, formulated under the auspices of the three main actors creating Polish obligations under international law, i.e. the UN, the Council of Europe and the European Union it was possible to conduct a comprehensive investigation of the obligations imposed on Poland by international and European law in the study area.
