This course takes you around the world to see what it means to work for peace, justice, and inclusion, and what happens when these conditions are absent in a society. On this topic, individuals play a hugely important role as witnesses and first-hand victims when institutions do not treat everyone with equal respect. And as the invincible Malala Yousafzai has shown the world, individuals also have the power to rise above violence and demand their rights to education, healthcare, justice services and much more, so that they can be thriving citizens and care for those their fellow citizens, especially the minorities and marginalized.
With such a huge global problem, it is easy to feel overwhelmed or thinking that only governments have the power to decide the future of peace and justice. Actually, they don’t work alone, but before taking action we need to understand the problem.
This course helps you understand what it takes to prevent injustice, violence, and discrimination in your own community and make a global impact!
