We Are Here (Because You Were There) is an educational CD-ROM on immigration and asylum in Britain. It introduces the issues and connects specific experiences with a range of contexts. Suitable for schools (Key stages 3/4), FE, community and informal settings, it includes lesson/workshop plans and is PC or Mac compatible. This was a joint project with Virtual Migrants. Revised version published 2003.
“As teachers, we know we have a responsibility to dispel the myths and lies that are gathering around immigration and asylum. Here is an excellent resource to help us do just that. We Are Here provides accessible, well supported and thought provoking material for Secondary Schools and youth groups. All young people should see and use this – all schools should buy a copy.”
