Our Everyday Lives Educational Packs
As part of our growing international programme, Mouth That Roars has produced a series of educational
DVD packs for use in schools and youth groups.
'Our Everyday Lives' (OEL) is a series of seven films and workshop activities that will help children
and young people explore issues around, culture, rights and identity. They can be used individually, as a
one off workshop or as a series of workshops over time.
Each film is accompanied by a booklet, which gives teachers and group leaders suggestions on
preparation work and workshop activities that young people can do before and after they watch the film.
Each film has been produced by children and young people living in the Middle East and North Africa
and offers a very individual and fascinating insight into their lives.
