Week#3 - Human Rights Activity 3:

Human Rights Activity #3:

1.     Working in pairs, go to Google Maps (or a similar site) and download an image of the map of the city of Abu Dhabi, where you live.

2.     Analyze your map from a human rights perspective. What human rights do they associate with different places on their maps? For example, a mosque with freedom of thought and religion; the school with the right to education; the post office with the right to information, to privacy, and to self-expression. As they identify these rights, they should look up the relevant article(s) in the UDHR and write the article number(s) next to that place on the map.

3.     Present the map to the whole class OR dicuss what rights are in your neighborhood.

Did any parts of your map have a high concentration of rights? How do you explain this? ___________________________________________________________
