1- Empowering voices
INSTRUCTIONS: Read the text and answer the questions.

Advocacy at school is a potent force, giving students a

voice and fostering positive change. It empowers
individuals to speak up for their needs and concerns,
creating a supportive environment for all.
One inspiring real-life example comes from a small
school where a group of students advocated for the
establishment of a communal eating space during breaks. Recognizing the importance of
social interaction and nourishment, these students successfully convinced school
authorities to allocate a designated area for students to eat together. The impact was
immediate – fostering a sense of community, improving overall well-being, and creating a
welcoming environment.
Advocacy in schools is essential as it empowers students to voice their needs and shape
their educational environment. It teaches them valuable life skills such as communication,
collaboration, and problem-solving. By advocating for positive changes, students not only
improve their own experiences but contribute to the collective well-being of the entire
school community.
