YOUTH-FRIENDLY/YOUTUBE 2.Issues

TOPIC FOR THIS THREAD: Issues around the world
YOUTUBE Videos treating social issues such as poverty, child labour, education for girls etc. that can be alleviated through support of entrepreneurship

This is the second in a series of threads to collect YOUTUBE videos that can be used anywhere by public school aged students (and their teachers). YOUTUBE has a lot of rich, educational material available but it is presently impossible for classroom teachers (especially at the elementary level) to set their students loose on the site!  As a teacher I really need a safe place to send my students, as well as a set of readily available resources for different subject areas. I hope that everyone (not only teachers) will feel free to contribute links. If you have an idea (e.g. art, dance, occupations, recipes, famous places in KIVA countries), please don’t be shy. Start a new thread or drop me a line to discuss it!

Posting suggestions (not rules   )

Subject:
Please leave the heading (YOUTH-FRIENDLY YOU-TUBE 2.Issues) but add the country & perhaps useful tags
          (This will make it easier for teachers to find and attach to specific lesson plans)

Body:
Please include the title and length of video  (plus notes/extra tags if you wish)
          (To help avoid duplication)

Before posting:     
Please make sure you have heard and viewed the entire video.
           (So that nothing that is non-age appropriate slips through)

Thank you to everyone who has been helping to make KIVA a richer experience for students everywhere!
