Short description
At the start of this interactive lesson, the participants watch a video on the topic of human and civil rights being an inseparable element of the justice system, which is supplemented by the norms and obligations that are also inescapably placed on the individual, the observance of which is a sign of social and civil responsibility in each one of us. After watching the video, they complete an interactive questionnaire and briefly discuss the results.
At the start of the training module, the participants acquaint themselves with the rights and duties of the child and citizen, reflected in the Constitution. The participants then, in small groups, resolve and play out short case studies on realising the balance between our rights and obligations. In this way, by playing out various situations, the pupils come to appreciate the importance of rights and obligations, as well as their own responsibility in fulfilling them, which facilitates the formation of a legal consciousness in the young citizen.
