Untold European Stories

Politicians and Activists

Politicians and Activists
Meeting with students and teachers working on the theme of untold stories of politicians and activists. The working method role-play. Integrate stories of women, people with migrant background. As we have the meeting in Sápmi, also minorities and their struggle for political rights will be in focus.
Teachers and students not directly a part of the Project will be invited to participate in activities.

When at the meeting we prepare and support the role-play, document it.
The school has an ongoing co-operation with organisations and museums normally part of daily activities. We plan to visit these organization with the international Group.
