Shaking the Movers: Youth Rights and Media This lesson is part of USE, UNDERSTAND & CREATE: A Digital Literacy Framework for Canadian Schools: http://mediasmarts.ca/teacher-resources/digital-literacy-framework. Overview Students will discuss the concept of human rights and then learn how these ideas led to the drafting of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.

  • What Makes Shaking the Movers Unique?
    WHAT MAKES SHAKING THE MOVERS UNIQUE? Prepared by Virginia Caputo, PhD. Landon Pearson Centre for the Study of Childhood and Children’s Rights Carleton University April 2018 Landon Pearson Centre for the Study of Childhood and Children’s Rights Carleton University, A735 Loeb Ottawa, Ontario K1S 5B6 www.carleton.ca/landonpearsoncentre April 2018 LANDON PEARSON CENTRE page 2 Introduction: Shaking the Movers (STM) is a youth-led, youth-driven participatory model focused on engaging children and young people with their civil and political rights. Created by the Landon Pearson Centre for the Study of Childhood and Children’s Rights at Carleton University in 2007, it is the only youth-centred participatory model in Canada that uses a rights-based framework grounded in the Guiding Principles and Articles of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC). This rights-based approach views children’s and young people’s rights in relation to those of adults in a complementary rather than adversarial positioning. Children’s rights, like adults’ rights, are inalienable, indivisible, and universal entitlements that recognize the inherent dignity of children who live with adults in a shared humanity. What is often misunderstood about the concept of children’s rights is the perception that these rights compete with those of adults. This assumption incorrectly casts rights in a zero-sum equation; that is, either you uphold children’s rights or you support adults’ rights. The STM model demonstrates in a substantive way that this is not the case. Rights are relational, contextual and sustainable. Apart from its participatory and rights-based approach, the Shaking the Movers model uniquely provides an ethical environment for children’s participation by carefully transferring power to children who are central in the model design.

    1128 September, 201511 29 April, 2016 THE CHALLENGES FORUM - 20 Years of Cooperation in Support of UN Peace Operations United Nations Peace Operations 2020: The United Nations Reviews and Their Implications for Tomorrow’s Missions1 #CF20 - The Roosevelt Hotel and UN Delegates Dining Room, UN HQ, New York, 8-9 May, 2016 The Challenges Forum Event United Nations Peace Operations 2020: The United Nations Reviews and Their Implications for Tomorrow’s Missions will mark 20 years of cooperation in support of United Nations (UN) peace operations. The meeting will be co-hosted by the Permanent Missions to the UN of Armenia, Indonesia, Nigeria, Sweden and the United States.2 The event will be organized in conjunction with, but separate from, the General Assembly High-level Thematic Debate on UN, Peace and Security on 10-11 May. Initiated in 1996, the aim of the Challenges Forum has remained steadfast. The purpose is to contribute to better analysis, planning, conduct and evaluation of multidimensional peace operations, and secondly, to strengthen and broaden the international network of actors involved in and supporting UN peace operations. The Partnership has grown incrementally over the years and consists today of 22 countries and 47 Partner Organizations, including major Troop, Police, Civilian Personnel- and Financial Contributing Countries, and the five Permanent Members of the UN Security Council.3 The Partner Organizations come from six continents, and represent governmental, practitioners’ and academic perspectives from a broad spectra of countries of the Global South and North alike (see www.challengesforum.org). Recognizing the challenges, but also drawing on the achievements made in recent years by UN peace operations, the focus of the 20th Anniversary Forum will be on highlighting progress and identifying areas of UN peace operations which need further consideration, attention and support.

    Creating Canada’s Peacekeeping Past Colin McCullough Sample Material © UBC Press 2016 Studies in Canadian Military History Series editor: Andrew Burtch, Canadian War Museum The Canadian War Museum, Canada’s national museum of military history, has a threefold mandate: to remember, to preserve, and to educate. Studies in Canadian Military History, published by UBC Press in association with the Museum, extends this mandate by presenting the best of contemporary scholarship to provide new insights into all aspects of Canadian military history, from earliest times to recent events. The work of a new generation of scholars is especially encouraged, and the books employ a variety of approaches – cultural, social, intellectual, economic, political, and comparative – to investigate gaps in the existing historiography. The books in the series feed immediately into future exhibitions, programs, and outreach efforts by the Canadian War Museum. A list of the titles in the series appears at the end of the book.
