The stories of the five characters poster show the storylines of the five main characters of the toolkit. The full storylines of the characters can be found in the appendix of the activity bundle. On the left-hand side of the panel, the main characters are shown with a QR code one can scan to listen to their story in different languages. Next to the characters, six green rights and six red rights are depicted. These icons show the main children's rights which are respected and violated in the story of the specific character. In order to interpret the children's rights icons, it might be useful to always have the children's rights overview panel with you.


This game has been specially created to work on the topic of duty-bearers with children and youngsters.


All children's rights icons used on the posters are created by UNICEF for their child-friendly version of the Convention on the Rights of the Child.

Variations

(1) Playing with fewer than five people? Divide the group into smaller groups and have them work together to tell the story from the perspective of the duty-bearer. This is also a good alternative when children lack confidence or find it difficult to tell the story alone.


(2) Combine this activity with the input from the game 'The stories of the five characters: how duty-bearers are perceived according to children' to contrast children and young people's ideas with those of the duty-bearers. This input can promote discussion.
