Article 15 Freedom of association
Every child has the right to meet with other children and to join groups and organisations, as long as this does not stop other people from enjoying their rights.
Introduction Thinking Question -What is needed for you to enjoy the right to get together and join up with other children and young people?
§ Possible answers : Clubs, organisations and groups that are near to you or can be accessed safely.
§ Groups and organisations that have fun and appropriate activities.
§ Safe places to meet.
§ Choice of clubs in school.
§ Encouragement from parents and carers to get involved.
§ Activities to join in with that do not disrupt the rights of others.
§ Freedom to start a group if there is something you feel strongly about.
§ Clubs and organisations should not be too expensive to join.
Possible Activities to understand, demonstrate or show examples of the article
1. Think about a group or club you are part of. Create a poster or leaflet to encourage other people to join.
2. Imagine you are meeting a new child for the first time – it could be in a club or in your class. Make a list of questions you would like to find out to get to know them. What would you tell them about yourself?
3. Make a list of 5 children that you would like to get in contact with. Write them a letter or video call them this week to find out how their week has been.
4. Think of the story ‘Cinderella’ How was her right to associate with others restricted? How would this have made her feel? Can you think of any other characters from books or stories that could not easily enjoy Article 15?
5. Make a list of all of the organisations and groups that you belong to. Can you group them in different ways? Are they school groups? Clubs? Religious groups? Sport or special interest groups? 6. Watch this short video. What can you learn from this? How does it link to Article 15
