SUMMARY:Streetlaw Aliens
UID:www.birmingham.ac.uk/212699
DESCRIPTION:Streetlaw began in the US in the 1970s. It involved law students going into local high schools and teaching young people about legal issues using practical and interactive teaching methods. Streetlaw programmes have evolved and are now firmly established in law schools across the globe including at the University of Birmingham. The aim is to improve legal literacy by promoting the understanding of law. It is hoped that by knowing their legal rights, young people will have greater confidence in handling legal issues.\n
 A range of topics relevant to young people are addressed but the focus of Aliens is understanding human rights. The delivery is key, law students don’t lecture on a legal issue, they use engaging and interactive teaching methods which are highly participatory.\n
