Short description
This process drama workshop explores the story of Malala Yousafzai from Pakistan, a powerful example of resistance to gender-based violence with global significance. She has had special connections to Norway, having received the Nobel Peace Prize in 2014, at the age of 17. She remains the youngest-ever Nobel Prize laureate by receiving the award at an age similar to that of the target audience for this drama lesson (secondary school pupils).
Aim: To investigate the following central questions: How could a young girl change the world? How does society and culture influence the life of young people? Do young people have a choice – can they change society to any extent? How?
Theoretical background: The lesson plan was developed in the framework of the ANTIGONE project (www.antigone-project.eu), a transnational project which is co-funded by the European Commission through the Erasmus+ programme (KA2 - Strategic Partnerships for Innovation in the School Sector). The project was coordinated by DAH Theatre from Serbia, and is the result of the cooperation between partners from seven countries (Serbia, Greece, Italy, Hungary, Sweden, Norway and Bulgaria).
Methodology of the intervention: Process drama or Drama in Education (DiE), as e.g. Heathcote, Bolton, Neelands, O’Neill or Davis would use this term.
Expected learning outcomes: Participants will experience how this process drama works, and understand the choices made when planning it. Based on the description of the drama, they will be able to lead it themselves.
Participation requirements: No previous knowledge or training required.
Note that the workshop includes exercises with possible physical contact, and explores a topic that might be sensitive for some participants – although in a safe and protected way.
