Nepal: Food for thought

(0)
Nepal is one of the hilliest countries in the world. Most of the population live in very remote areas, so many grow their own food. But growing enough to live on is a real challenge. At Shree Sitaram Primary School in Dalla, western Nepal, many children come to school on an empty stomach. The village is extremely hard to reach from the capital, Kathmandu. There’s no electricity and the nearest shop is a six-hour walk away. The children have four hours of lessons before they get their school lunch. But first, the food has got to reach them!

Radical Read is a flexible learning resource containing a number of themes exploring the involvement of young people in peaceful protest, inspired by the commemoration of the Peterloo Massacre in Manchester, England in 1819. It includes powerful stories of how young people around the globe have used protest and collective action to promote democratic rights. The pack contains a wide variety of sources to support the delivery of activities. Some of these are original materials that were written by young people, while others are extracts from a range of different sources, from leaflets to young adult fiction and historians’ works. They were selected to help provoke questions, provide context, and stimulate critical thinking. Also included are links to curriculum subjects, the British Council Core Skills and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. This session introduces students to the Peterloo Massacre. Students are encouraged to think about the importance of banners to protest movements.
