The Migration Conundrum: Be Part of the Dream Team

London Citizens’ campaigns for the human rights of migrants – Citizens for Sanctuary and Strangers into Citizens – are joining forces with the Citizen Schools team to produce a compelling learning resource around the controversial issue of migration. It’ll be styled on the now famous ‘democracy cookbook’ and provide teachers and students with free access to a comprehensive toolkit of learning around migration, including: Activate! – a huge number of phenomenal learning activities, Real Lives – real life stories of young, real life migrants, Evidence Bank – helping students distinguish fact from fiction, and the YOUCAN toolkit – a guide for young people taking action on the issue.

We’re creating a team of teachers, students, migrants and staff here at London Citizens to advise on, test, add to and launch the resource between now and refugee week in June. If you want to be a part of it, the group will meet once a month and get their hands on the Migration Conundrum ideas and resources 6 months early. Just email ben@citizenschools.info if you’re interested. An example resource is shown below:
