This interactive, role-playing workshop is set in a fictional country which has just experienced a major terrorist attack, on the scale of 9/11, by a fictional terrorist organisation.
By taking on the roles of different groups affected by the attack, students explore how we respond to terrorism as a society. The students take part in a mock press conference and consider questions on national security and civil liberties. The workshop encourages students to think on their feet as well as develop confidence in their public speaking skills.
Our objective is to develop and encourage the following:
- Discussion and debate on the complex nature of dealing with terrorism
- Consideration of the balance between liberty and security
- Critical assessment of information in a limited timeframe
- Public speaking and presentation skills
Time: 90 mins
