Why is civic education important?

"These videos explore some of our constitutional rights and the institutions designed to support and enforce them. In order to assert our rights, we need to know their meaning and what they include. To use our democratic institutions appropriately, we need to understand their mandate and how they function."  (from the Introduction)

Like all our content, the scripts for these videos were written and peer reviewed by experts in the field.

You can download smaller versions of these brief videos, which are just a few minutes long each, or watch them online.

- the right to adequate housing
- the right to education
- the right of access to health care
- freedom of assembly and protest
- freedom of expression and hate speech
