Asia Our Neighbour - Bangladesh

Resource Details: Caritas Australia and Catholic Education Commission,
New South Wales, 2002, 35 minutes.
 

This video traces the lives of two teenager girls, Bangladeshi Salma Begum and Australian Amy Hannigan and shares with us many aspects of their lives: family, education, work, hopes and dreams. This resource provides students with an insight into Bangladesh and its people, introducing students to this country of cultural richness and economic poverty. It integrates a justice perceptive across the curriculum and addresses key issues in child rights, challenges unjust structures and is about empowering people to help themselves. A workbook accompanies the video for a cross-curriculum perspective on Asia for the middle-school years.
