Social Justice and Human Rights Club
Group experience
US Grade 7 - 10
In this social justice club we will share our passions for human rights and global social justice. Members can share particular issues that they are concerned about, ask other members questions about ways to get involved and make changes within their communities and around the globe. By learning more about social justice and finding others who share this passion, this group aims to raise awareness and find other who care about the important issue of human rights all around the...
This class is taught in English.
Group members will engage in awareness building of the world around them, the current events happening and will critically analyze global problems and solutions as well as become aware of the various ways in which people can work, whether as volunteers or as a career in the important field of human rights and social justice.
I am a human rights lawyer who has worked for the UN on social justice and human rights issues for over a decade. I also teach human rights law and have taught subjects relating to human rights and social justice on Outschool for over three years.
The topic of human rights can lead to members learning of upsetting human rights violations around the world. My goal as a moderator is to ensure that honest, fact based information is shared. However, sensitive members may want to consider if learning about social justice and human rights violations will be too upsetting for them.
