Why Choose This Course?
Embark on an exciting journey into the life of Simone de Beauvoir, a pioneering thinker who fought for gender equality and challenged societal norms. The course begins with a video set in Iceland, where gender equality laws are inspired by movements like de Beauvoir’s. Students will investigate areas in their schools and communities where equality may be lacking and consider how fairness can be improved.
