The new Human Rights Tour: All different - All equal
The Visitors Service is offering a new guided tour on human rights. We want to make you, the student, aware of the basic human rights concepts, issues and ways to address them. In the international environment of the United Nations you will discover the importance of human rights through games, role-play and examples.
In one hour you will be introduced to the following carefully selected topics:
- War and peace - history of human rights, what human rights are and why are they important;
- Diversity - games and role play on selected human rights;
- Your rights - where to go and what to do to protect your rights.
The activities will be conducted in an interactive way with experienced facilitators. You will benefit from examples of human right protection and violations that have been taken from all over the world. This will enable you to understand the concept of human rights and deal better with inherent differences that surround us.
The human rights tour takes 1 1/2 hours and is primarily suitable for children and students aged 10--18. The tours are available every working day with prior group reservation. Minimum group size is 4 people.
As a part of the tour we also give group leaders one pack of our latest UN Human Rights publications:
Teachers and students are invited to have a look at our
tour information leaflet on human rights and discuss it in class.
