Community Organising in Schools
Things that should be taught in schools..
At UWCISAK Japan I co-created a curriculum based on creating positive change. It was called Leading with others. It fused elements of Design Thinking, Systems Thinking, Entrepreneurship and Community Organising. The videos below give insight to how I designed resources for students as we worked asynchronously during the Covid lockdown.
​
I learned the Community Organising model (which is perfect for student organisers) here. It provides a strong framework for student organisers to follow. Our entire Student - Designed Activities Program was based upon this model - it works!
