Program Overview
The Just One… program is a 11-hour diversity and inclusion program designed for Tasmanian schools. The program is locally designed and harnesses the power of storytelling by Tasmanians who have faced exclusion and discrimination. Weaving the content of this authentic lived experience throughout the lessons, providing students with hands on experiences, practical activities and skills to build inclusion.
The program takes the students on a 4-step journey that builds human connections, valuable skills, and motivation to address exclusionary and bullying behaviour. During this journey, students build their diversity competence and become empowered agents of change.
