Go to Eye on Brazil
to find out about the lives of street children in Rio
de Janeiro and projects that are trying to improve their
quality of life. |
How do you think they
are feeling to be out on the streets?
What are they doing in order to survive?
Who would they turn to for help?
In your view, which photograph is the odd one out?
Visit http://www.unicef.org/crc/crc.htm
or
http://www.scotland.gov.uk/library/documents-w9/rotc-01.htm
for the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.
Which of these basic rights are denied to homeless young
people?
| In groups of
three, imagine you represent the following people:
a) A manager
of a local business
b) A tourist
c) A volunteer for a charity helping the homeless
Individually,
write captions for each of the photographs. Afterwards,
compare your captions with the others in your group:
- How are they
different?
- Why might
they have different views about homeless young people?
- Of all the
sets of captions, which are closest to your own views?
