High school students taking director's chair for "children's rights"


Film and law students and high school students come together for the "Children's Rights and Cinema Workshop", held in cooperation with universities and high schools. In the workshop, which will start on December 23, high school students will shoot films about children's rights.


THEY WILL TAKE MENTOR TRAINING FIRST

The "Children's Rights and Cinema Workshop" will be held in cooperation with Istanbul Gelisim University Faculty of Economics, Administrative and Social Sciences and the Faculty of Law of a private university. In the workshop, which will start on December 23, students from the relevant departments of both universities will be given mentoring training on the subject. After the training organized to raise awareness of children's rights and to raise awareness of young people, university students will hold workshops at the state high schools determined in February 2022. As the output of the workshops, high school students will be asked to produce a one-minute film on children's rights with their mobile phones. The implementation work will be done under the supervision of mentor students. The first workshop will be held in February 2022, the second will be held in May 2022. After the completed workshops, both mentor students and participating high school students will be given certificates at a ceremony.

Related to the subject, the training titled "Legal Aspect of Children's Rights" will be given by Dr. Sinem Tuna, an academic member of Istanbul Gelisim University Faculty of Economics, Administrative and Social Sciences Department of Radio, Television and Cinema, and the training titled "Legal Aspect of Children's Rights" will be given by Asst. Prof. Ahmet Ayar.

“ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT TOPICS TODAY”

Making statements about the workshop, Asst. Prof. Sinem Tuna says, “The project, which is shaped on the principle of cooperation between universities and high schools, aims to make high school students adopt that two different social sciences disciplines can come together and produce, and gain different perspectives. Children's rights, which is one of the most important topics of today, will be a subject that young people who receive education at different levels will deal with in depth.

Finally, Tuna states that it is necessary to take responsibility for children's rights in an academic sense and says, "Fulfilling the principles of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, which entered into force on September 2, 1990, is the responsibility of all signatory states. War, migration, economic problems, health problems, education problems, famine, malnutrition affect children, who are the most vulnerable group, more than adults. Being aware of the problems related to children's rights is also an important part of education. We are also obliged to bear this responsibility in the academic dimension and to raise awareness in the society.”
