In 2010 Handicap International launched a new awareness-raising tool aimed at young people and teachers.

A leading voice in the international campaign against landmines and cluster bombs, Handicap International has drawn on its experience as a key organisation working on demining, risk education and victim assistance to produce an engaging and comprehensive resource.

The DVD and website tell the story of how the actions of ordinary people around the world led to the international treaties banning landmines and cluster bombs. They provide young people with the information and skills to become active global citizens, allowing them to take action to raise awareness about these weapons, which have terrible consequences for civilians.

You can order a free copy of the Beky DVD at www.handicap-international.org.uk/schools-order

 

The Forgotten 10 Challenges gives great opportunity to introduce the issues in class or in an assembly, put on an exhibition, or put on a sponsored event. We can send a free Forgotten 10 action pack to you when you sign up at www.handicap-international.org.uk/f10-signup
