Vabamu Museum of Occupations and Freedom Museum

We all have rights, but we often tend to forget that rights also come with responsibilities. What fundamental human rights are listed in the Convention on the Rights of the Child? In the museum lesson, we will reflect on the topic of equality, freedom and human dignity, both in history and in modern Estonia, using real-life stories. To enliven the discussion, we will try to step into the shoes of real people, whether the wearer of these shoes is Hans, who grew up in Siberia, or Urve, who fled to Sweden. By the end of the lesson, a class declaration of rights and responsibilities will be completed so that we can continue to remember: rights and freedoms can only be maintained if we fulfill our responsibilities.
