b) Draft Proposed Activities for the Human Rights Best Practices (ATHAM) Programme in Schools SUHAKAM had organised a series of workshops on ATHAM in six different zones throughout Malaysia in 2019. Among the feedback received from the participants was that they needed some guidance on activities that could be implemented in schools to fulfil the objectives of ATHAM programme. Hence, SUHAKAM developed a list of proposed activities based on the articles in the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) to serve as a guide to the teachers on possible activities that can be done in schools under the ATHAM programme. Datuk Lok Yim Pheng delivered the opening address at an online focus group discussion (FGD) on the Draft Proposed Activities for the ATHAM Programme in Schools attended by officials from Ministry of Education and teachers from ATHAM schools which was held on 7 October in Kuala Lumpur. The development of the proposed activities also involved the Ministry of Education (MOE) and several selected teachers from ATHAM schools.
