Canada & Conflict: A Humanitarian Perspective

Friday, November 4 · 1:15 pm–3:15 pm · Meeting Room 106H

Presenter

Andrea McArthur
Canadian Red Cross

Armed conflicts and other situations of violence are taking place in many parts of the world today and young people are increasingly affected by them. Canada & Conflict: A Humanitarian Perspective is based on the premise that education in International Humanitarian Law is relevant, meaningful, and useful for young people in all societies. This workshop explores the newly revised Canada and Conflict toolkit with curriculum connections to law, history, geography, social sciences and English studies. The voices of Canadians directly and indirectly affected by war are explored through the mixed-methodology case studies within the resource.
