Suitable for 14-19-year olds (secondary and high schools, and college), this Zulu language article and accompanying activity sheet can be used in the classroom, STEM clubs and at home.

This resource links to KS4 and KS5 geography and citizenship.

It can also be used as a careers resource and links to Gatsby Benchmarks:
Gatsby Benchmark 2: Learning from career and labour market information
Gatsby Benchmark 4: Linking curriculum learning to careers

• This teaching resource explains the work of Dr Elsa Lee, a researcher at the University of Cambridge, UK. She is investigating how participation in local waterway regeneration projects in England and South Africa influences a sense of global citizenship in young people.

• This resource also contains information about the organisations Elsa is working with and offers an insight into careers in environmental sustainability education. If your students have questions for Elsa, they can send them to her online. All they need to do is to go to the article online (see the Futurum link below), scroll down to the end and type in the question(s). Elsa will reply!

• The activity sheet provides ‘talking points’ (based on Bloom’s Taxonomy) to prompt students to reflect on Elsa’s research and challenges them to take part in activity in their own neighbourhood to investigate whether this influences their own sense of global citizenship.

• The article and activity sheet are also available in English and Spanish through the weblink below.

This resource was first published on Futurum Careers, a free online resource and magazine aimed at encouraging 14-19-year-olds worldwide to pursue careers in science, tech, engineering, maths, medicine (STEM) and social sciences, humanities and the arts for people and the economy (SHAPE).
