Children's rights

The main discussion panel consists of two parts. There are 14 dog-icons shown around the panel, each as a symbol of a children's right. Central, there is a large picture with all kind of situations where the children's rights are highlighted in a positive or negative way (either respected or violated). Also organisations and institutions that can offer assistance with regard to children's rights are depicted (e.g. a school, a hospital, …).

• The players put bottle caps on all situations where children's rights are violated. Variation: all situations where children's rights are respected or all situations that they recognise.
• Combine with the evaluation panel (SOCIETY B3). Link a situation of the children's right panel to an emotion that this situation evokes for the players. This is possible by drawing a line of chalk between both panels. Suggested question: How does this situation make you feel and why?
• Have a poll in order to discuss which children's right is considered the most important. For each vote that a right gets, pull a line next to the corresponding dog icons. Later on the votes are counted and the winning right is proclaimed.

• Recognise the positive aspects as well as the violations of children's rights.
• Being able to recognize and distinguish between the different children's rights.
