Framed through human rights education, this practical guide equips educators with background knowledge, lesson plans, resources, and classroom strategies for addressing an often-overlooked area of social studies. Designed for use across subjects and contexts, this book supports teachers in moving beyond presenting human rights as an abstract topic by equipping educators to confront difficult histories while expanding students’ understanding of both past and present.
Here’s what the critics say:
“Confronting the history of sexual violence is among the most extreme challenges we face—and embedding it meaningfully in education is even more daunting. The history of the Japanese military’s “comfort women” is not theirs alone; it is a living narrative of gender, war, and justice. This book offers a profoundly moving and urgently practical guide to teaching this unresolved human rights history.”
