The research, of qualitative character, comprises 591 interviews with students from 15 higher education courses, using the Delphi technique in the collection, organization and data analysis. From the information obtained, the perception of young students on human rights is related, with higher incidence, to the basic rights, considered natural and positive rights. Perceptions point justice as application of moral standards, ethical standards, meritocracy, and damage repair. Thus, it is possible to conclude that the results of this study challenge the school in order to seek to ensure and protect the rights and thus promote social justice, understanding that performance in these perspectives makes possible the effectuation of a social quality basic education.
