Anne MacleodNovember 12th, 2008

SCIAF is giving a voice to the young people of the conflict-torn Democratic Republic of Congo in a new and innovative modern languages resource for Scottish secondary schools launched today (Wednesday 12 November).

The new resource Citizens of the World – Life in the DRC (Citoyens Du Monde – La Vie en RDC) is has been specially designed to support Curriculum for Excellence. It comprises a web-based video wall of young Congolese talking about their lives, an interactive blog enabling young Scottish students to ask questions and hold discussions with a young person in the Congo, and a teachers’ pack including background, lesson ideas, factsheets and a DVD.

£9.95 is being charged by SCIAF to help recover the costs of production.

The new resource can be obtained by schools by emailing youth@sciaf.org.uk or by calling SCIAF direct on telephone: 0141 354 5555.
