Abstract
The basic law for consumers clarifies the rights and responsibilities of consumers. To support the autonomy of consumers, the inclusion of consumer education in school curriculums has been recognized. This study uses a welfare society research framework and focuses on senior high school home economics courses. In order to foster the well-being of the aging population, the focus is on social welfare. The study provides guidelines on integrating human rights education with both social and elderly welfare. It is suggested that this program can be used to expand learning opportunities within consumer education.
