Join our Teacher Advisory Group
Are you a teacher that is interested in helping Amnesty develop its Human Rights Education work?
Our Teacher Advisory Group meets three times a year to review Amnesty resources, plan new resources, explore Amnesty campaigns and consider how to engage students and teachers with human rights issues in schools.
Joining this group offers you a unique opportunity to explore and use our resources and to network with other educators who are passionate about human rights education.
Using fiction to teach human rights in early years and primary schools
Fiction has real power to further human rights education. Explore the values at the heart of human rights with your class through our recommended fiction and teacher notes for children aged 2+
"It is through literature, not simply literacy, that we learn to understand and empathise...Through literature, we can find our place in the world, feel we belong and discover our sense of responsibility. Amnesty understands this very well."
