Different Art of the World

Landmark 29 (Social Justice)

During this workshop, we engaged students in a Grade 9 Geography class from Adam Scott CVI. The topics we covered include an introduction to the Sustainable Development Goals framework, the Leave no one Behind (LNOB) principle and the application of LNOB at local, national and global levels. At the local level, we explored who is left behind in Peterborough and the County and issues why groups of individuals are left behind. We also looked at factors such as poverty, discrimination and social-economic status as root causes for those who are left behind. In a global context, we examined the links between internal displacement and climate change and how climate change exacerbates the living conditions for many living in different part of the world.
