Monash University, it was offered as a Monash University forum. We were thrilled that Lorraine

<\/figure>\n\n\n\nAfter Lorraine Finley provided a contextual address explaining how human rights applies to
everyone, Hugh started the educational component of the forum, in the form of The Human
Rights Game. In groups students discussed the issues involved on the playing cards and then
freely shared their opinions. After gameplay students were asked to write down their thoughts
about how to create human rights friendly schools. Soon the white board was full of thoughtful
suggestions. Those suggestions have been analyzed by Monash University\u2019s Dr Erin Leif. Shortly
she will publish an article so we can all better understand the themes that students presented.

At the end of the forum, students were invited to meet the presenters and participate in
photos. A surprising number of students came up, said the game was brilliant and wanted to
shake hands.
