Designed for Grades 5-9, this session will explore the concept of Human Rights and introduce students to key international, national, and provincial Human Rights Instruments. Using engaging scenarios from the Alberta Civil Liberties Research Centre’s DVD, “Respectful Me, Respectful You: Discrimination, Harassment, and Human Rights,” students will work in small groups to discuss real-life situations and create their own Classroom Charter of Rights and Responsibilities. By the end of the workshop, each class will have a unique Charter to proudly display, fostering a respectful and inclusive environment.
