International Human Rights Day is coming up on December 10, and this year’s theme is Speak Up – Stop Discrimination.
To celebrate this day, Teachers Without Borders would like to recognize teachers who work to end discrimination in their classrooms and communities.
We are asking teachers to send stories, photos and/or video of their class activities that focus on human rights and anti-discrimination.
HOW TO GET STARTED:
There are several simple activities you can do with your class in honor of Human Rights Day:
Remember to document your class activity with photos and/or video and send them to Stephanie Knox Cubbon: stephanie@teacherswithoutborders.org.
Submissions sent by December 7 will be displayed on TWB’s website on Human Rights Day, December 10.
Please note: If you cannot complete this activity by December 7th, we still welcome your submissions, which will feature on the Peace Education section of our website throughout the year.
Here are some suggested questions to discuss with your students before or during the class activity:
If you have any questions please contact Stephanie: stephanie@teacherswithoutborders.org
