I found this article by Caroline Paul on ideas.TED.com interesting: https://ideas.ted.com/activism-isnt-just-for-adults-and-teens-we-need-to-teach-younger-kids-to-be-activists-too/

It's about the appropriateness of teaching young children activist skills and strategies, and why it might be important for their anxiety that we do.

What are your thoughts about student activism? Have you designed a program to help develop their skills? Describe it here and share with fellow education!
