How do we approach sensitive topics like genocide and humanitarian crises without overwhelming students, yet ensure they understand the gravity of these events? In a world where such crises still unfold, educators have the responsibility to connect the past to the present and inspire students to become advocates for change.
“Teaching Through a Genocide: How to Handle Global Humanitarian Crises in the Classroom” equips you with the tools to create safe spaces for discussing complex topics, use survivor stories and primary sources effectively, and highlight resilience and resistance to inspire hope. By fostering awareness and advocacy, you’ll empower your students to contribute to a more compassionate and just world.
We teach so that genocide on a mass scale, the specialty of the past century, can be circumvented in the future.
