Creating a Better World

 

Child are not born with the knowledge, skills and dispositions required for democratic citizenship, nor for the protection and promotion of human rights and peaceful resolution of the inevitable conflicts that will occur as they live and work together. Hence, they must be educated for democratic citizenship.

 

Education for democratic citizenship requires knowledgeable and skilful teachers. Creating a Better World is a teaching learning resource designed to facilitate teachers to educate for democratic citizenship by creating their classrooms and schools into places where democracy is promoted, human rights and conflicts resolved peacefully, that is, places reflective of the society to be created.
