Legal Literacy Module for School Children


The Legal Aid Society of Campus Law Centre has taken up a project to develop a module on legal literacy for school children studying in class IX to XII. The module should address the fundamentals of the concept & structure of law, the court system, rights & duties, etc. and then it should deal with specific issues relevant for children such as ragging, sexual harassment, drug abuse, RTI, RTE, environment, human trafficking, traffic rules, etc. This project will have 2 components:
  •    Preparation of module
  •    Conducting legal literacy classes in schools with the help of the module

This will be a student led project whereby the chosen students will be asked to prepare a module in a format which is attractive to children preferably containing text, cartoons and illustrations. Also we should make something in English as well as Hindi. The module will be in the form of booklet as well as a structured presentation. Once we have prepared the module then we could go to schools and other target areas to interact with children.

What we are looking for:
  • ·  Research/writing skills
  • ·  Presentation skills 

The students who are interested to be a part of this project may send a mail to: clc.legalaidsociety@gmail.com by September 11, 2012.
