Futuros sdg1 Fin de la pobreza
Explorar posibilidades alternativas para el futuro que puedan poner fin a la pobreza en todas sus formas en todas partes y utilizar estas posibilidades para considerar cómo podría ser necesario cambiar los comportamientos actuales.
Students explore the spread of wealth/poverty in the school neighbourhood and key services provided by NGO’s and the government.
Students explore the manifestoes/pledges/plans of local political parties represented in the town council and analyse (1) the likely consequences of these positions on poverty in the neighbourhood and (2) the role of the government, NGO’s and individual responsibility in these.Students set out different futures without poverty and consider routes to achieving these asking questions like ‘What would happen if we ….?’
Students reflect on the outcomes of this process, supported by the opinions of local formal and informal leaders (religious, cultural, business, etc.).
Based on the outcomes of the discussions, students write individual or groups plans for the area entitled ‘Getting rid of poverty from the neighbourhood’
The plans are presented and discussed.
