Four projects enable class members to show what they have learned about ways they can stand up for democracy. to begin, individuals review their identity charts and craft a mask that represents themselves. Next, groups create a short, illustrated children's book about conformity and belonging. The third project asks groups to create a School Declaration of Human Rights infographic. The final project has class members developing an action plan for something they could do to raise awareness and inspire change.
