| Summary: | A programme for use in the classroom with students. Three inspiring stories from young people determined to get their voices heard. Somalian born refugee Hodan Addawe was sent alone to England for safety, education and the chance of a better life. But Hodan wanted what most children would want - for her parents to be with her. A teacher from City Academy Bristol recognised her needs and suggested she might try and campaign for their entry in the UK. But can a young child really be expected to take on central government and win? In the second story a playwright and a group of actors explore citizenship and democracy with humour, wit and intelligence; and in the last story a group of surfers challenge the way the local council and Water Authorities manage our natural resources. |
