Human Rights and Service Learning
This manual aims to:
- Engage educators currently utilizing service-learning in the practice of human rights education;
- Enable human rights educators and trainers to teach through service-learning; and
- Provide the tools and building blocks for educators to promote human rights education and service-learning far beyond the scope of the activities included in this manual.
Table of contents:
- Section A, 'A Guide to the Lesson Plans,' provides a detailed description of how the lesson plans are organized and tips on how to implement them.
- Section B contains a grid that lists human rights and service-learning activities. The grid provides you with examples of how you can combine different human rights lessons and service-learning activities.
- Section C, 'Lesson Plans,' is the heart of the manual and contains lessons and service-learning projects. The lesson plans are divided into five human rights topic areas: Environment, Poverty, Discrimination, Children's Rights to Education and Health, and Law and Justice.
