CHAPTER 1 - REPORT OF THE EDUCATION AND PROMOTION WORKING GROUP An activity in progress for polytechnic student leaders from the northern region students are future leaders. As such, they should be exposed to human rights and develop an understanding of issues while still young. At the end of each workshop, participants were assigned the task of mapping a plan of action. They had to work out how to share the knowledge that they had gained with fellow-students. The Commission will work with them to ensure they implement their plan of action effectively, as well as monitor the process. The Commission believes that youth and students are future leaders. As such, they should be exposed to human rights and develop an understanding of issues while still young.
