Within the framework of the prevention program Respekt Coaches we have initiated a Human Rights workshop at the Gretel-Bergmann Gemeinschaftsschule in Berlin-Marzahn. The students of the 8th grade have raised their voices on human rights - with buttons, a banner for the school cafeteria, a sticker campaign and public posts on the schoolyard to their most important human rights.
We have trained eight young girls with a refugee background (10 to 14 years) to young children’s rights mentors. Peer-to-peer, they passed on their knowledge to their age group after a competence workshop on children's rights in various action spaces. Only within the framework of the workshop, around 70 other young people were reached and became enthusiastic about the topic. The workshop took place in cooperation with: Wir im Brunnenviertel e.V.
The voice of the younger generation
For the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, 21 March 2019, we initiated a school-wide competition at the Wilhelm Hauff Primary School, Berlin-Wedding. All students of the school were encouraged, with the support of their teachers, to amplify their voices on racism, prejudice and diversity, respect and tolerance in texts, images and photos.
The competition was framed by further educational offers, action days and the visit of recognized speakers on the topic from NARUD e.V.. You will find all submitted works presented in a special edition of the school newspaper.
Special edition to the school competition
Enjoy!
The students of several language learning classes give their voices in our newspaper project TON DER FREIHEIT power and reach. Most of the participants are young refugees from Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan. Their topics, stories and perspectives on their new life in Germany as well on their homelands create this special format.

In the course of our Children's Rights AG at the Willy-Brandt-Schule the students of the ninth grade go for the Rights of the Child. As a focal point, the students take a closer look at Article 12 [Respect for the views of the child] and Article 13 [Freedom of Expression] of the Convention on the Rights of the Child by designing a graffiti in the school building.
In the course of our Children's Rights workshop at the Deutsch-Skandinavische Gemeinschaftsschule in Berlin-Tempelhof, students of the fifth grade dedicated themselves to the subject Children's Rights, in particular to the topic Child Poverty. They call for solidarity for children living in poverty in Germany and particularly for refugee children in Berlin, for which they have initiated a fundraising campaign.
T-shirts for Children's Rights
To make their voices to this topic audible and visible in a long term, they visualised their statements into T-shirt logos. In a children's rights spring party with further highlights they presented this unique T-shirts.
