Human rights star

In groups, students explore selected articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and create a poster.

Steps

1. Brief introduction: the Universal Declaration of Human Rights of 1948.
2. Groups draw two simplified articles each.
3. They search for a real-life example where this right is respected or violated.
4. Each group designs one ray of a star with the slogan and an example.
5. You assemble the rays into a large star in the hallway.

Tip: Amnesty International provides a youth-adapted simplified version of the declaration.
