40-Days of Engagement on Anti-Racism
The "40 Days of Engagement on Anti-Racism: Faith-Based Ideas" is a resource from The United Church of Canada designed to guide children through faith-based learning about anti-racism. This resource offers various activities that blend Biblical teachings with practical exercises to foster understanding, empathy, and social justice awareness among young learners. Through interactive and reflective activities, children explore topics like diversity, privilege, and systemic racism, all within a supportive faith context.
