Ethics workshops for students
enQuiring minds workshops
enQuiring minds workshops are interactive seminars which provide a space and opportunity for young people to meet, explore different views on a particular issue, and work together to create an inclusive community, focused on the well-being of all. Workshops are for Year 7 to Year 13 students – in appropriate groupings. We utilise a variety of genres, such as drama, art, music, film, literature and dialogue, in order to engage students in meaningful critique of contemporary issues such as:
- Artificial intelligence
- Technology at the beginning of life
- Technology at the end-of-life
- Identity, sexuality and consumerism
- Media and social responsibility
- Citizen involvement and taking a stand
- Science and the criminal mind
- Crime and punishment
- Ethics and sport
- Organ donation
- Transport and the ways we move
- Environmental ethics
- Building community in Aotearoa (which explores He Whakaputanga o te Rangatiratanga o Nu Tireni, Te Tiriti o Waitangi and the 1893 Women’s Suffrage Petition).
