Kids2Anak
First Step: Using Video footage, it gives the opportunity to the kids ask questions to each other. This helps children to find out more about each others worlds. To do so, Agta Aid visit schools in England and gather different questions from the students. These children are filmed asking their questions and later these videos are shown to the Agta kids (Anak) who also filmed asking their own questions for the English Kids.
Second Step: The participants schools are offered a workshop to simulate the Agta's social-political situation in the form of a board game. While playing, the students will discuss and understand the different perspectives and motivations of influential parties acting in the Agta's land, the Sierra Madre area.
