Social Justice Action Project

You will have 4-5 lessons to inquire into a current Social Justice issue and present your finding to the
class to raise awareness of the issue. You can be in a group of up to 4.

To complete this you will need to do the following:

 Select a current social justice issue (this can be any scale, local or international)
 Research into the issue to give key details. What is this issue? which aspect of social justice
does it impact? what/where/why/when has this happened?
 A clear plan of how you could raise awareness of the issue and a proposal of what action you
would take to ‘stand up’ for the issue - this is just a plan, but should be SMART (Specific,
Measurable, Attainable, Relevant and have a Time frame)
 Give a presentation to the class with all these key details

You will be given a mark out of 25 (Planning, Research, Presentation, Creativity & Group work)
