This is a team game (up to 4 players) where the students work their way through the story to uncover evidence of the 4 human rights violations that are occurring regularly in Honduras. All of these violations are actually happening and several are mentioned in the Teacher Booklet and the Photo Cards in our “mother earth” resource.
The aim is for the students to become aware of the damage that big business, in this case mining and logging companies, can do to indigenous people in countries like Honduras and how, by raising awareness, we can fight to help protect their human rights and their environment.
