Citizenship and Rights

A story in ‘the Scotsman’ described work by a West Lothian teacher on the theme of Child Soldiers, human rights and international humanitarian law. This topic was the basis for a very successful seminar for teachers at the recent Scottish Learning Festival 2009 in Glasgow.

British Red Cross is one of the non-governmental organisations which is involved actively in work with Scottish schools on issues around human rights and conflict, and their Education website offers very useful resources. Their staff can also work directly with schools to run presentations and interactive sessions for pupils on humanitarian issues.
