Module 2 - Improving Identity and Cultural Diversity,
Beliefs and values/ Respecting Others

Upper Secondary School My name is Adil
Aged 14-19 yrs

In a multicultural world, valuing and respecting
diversity encourages people to accept
individual differences. Many of our lessons and
activities within the school curriculum focused
on the global problem of immigration and
respecting cultural diversity was of paramount
importance for us at the moment. This is
not only for this project, but a fundamental Conference “I was a stranger”
principle of citizenship established by our
Constitution of our Republican country and it’s
included in our core curriculum.
This module was developed through a series of
activities:
• My name is Adil
• A day in a centre for migrant children
• Conference: “I was a stranger”
Through these direct experiences centred on
the migrants’ rights, denied and then regained,
on the integration and rediscovery of one’s
own identity, the students had the opportunity
to deconstruct the stereotypes and the A day in a centre for migrant children
mechanisms that determine them allowing a
new perception of the concept of citizenship
with a view to inclusiveness.
