Good treatment
See Summary In this activity, participants are encouraged to reflect on their best qualities and present them to the others.
Materials Paper, pens/pencils
Procedure 1. Tell the participants that they have to make a list of their best qualities as part of competition to win a wonderful trip around the world. They have to be honest, but also not shy. 2. Give the participants time to reflect individually and write their presentations down. Then present in plenary. 3. Before moving to debriefing, you can tell the participants that everyone did a great job, which is why everyone is a winner.
Debriefing questions • How do you feel? • What was more difficult – to formulate our best qualities or to present them in front of others? Why? • Would the list look differently if it was to be only kept for ourselves and if so, why? • Which of the qualities relate to how we interact with others and treat them? • Why is it important to be more aware of our qualities? How can this relate to fighting racism? • What qualities on the list do we wish to have but we do not yet possess? How can we improve them? • What qualities do people need to have to build a world free of racism?
