SSRN is overrun with submissions, making it a challenge to pick Tuesday Tips, but I found three promising articles, including one by Michael Z. Green (below) about NFL arbitration, about which we posted last week.

Grundschüler – Kinderrechte – Weltgebetstag – Primary school pupils – Children’s rights – World Day of Prayer

(English below)

Anfang März veranstaltete die Evangelische Grundschule in Eisenach eine Projektwoche zum jährlich stattfindendenen weltweiten Weltgebetstag. Dazu erreichte uns folgender kleiner Berichte der Schuldirektorin:

„Im Rahmen unserer Projektwoche zum Weltgebetstag haben die Kinder unserer Evangelischen Grundschule Eisenach einen besonderen Gottesdienst gestaltet, der ganz im Zeichen von Gemeinschaft, Verantwortung und globalem Lernen stand. Im Mittelpunkt standen dabei Kinder aus Nigeria, Ruanda und vielen weiteren Teilen der Welt.
Die Schülerinnen und Schüler setzten sich intensiv mit den Kinderrechten auseinander. Themen wie das Recht auf sauberes Wasser, auf Bildung und auf Freizeit wurden nicht nur theoretisch erarbeitet, sondern auch kreativ und persönlich reflektiert. Dabei wurde deutlich, wie unterschiedlich die Lebensbedingungen von Kindern weltweit sind – und gleichzeitig, wie viel wir voneinander lernen können.

Besonders wichtig war den Kindern ein positiver und wertschätzender Blick auf das Leben von Gleichaltrigen in anderen Ländern. Sie entdeckten Gemeinsamkeiten, entwickelten Verständnis für Unterschiede und erkannten, wie wertvoll Solidarität und gegenseitige Unterstützung sind.
Der liebevoll gestaltete Gottesdienst in der Annenkirche (in Eisenach) bot Raum für Gedanken, Gebete und Beiträge der Kinder, die ihre Eindrücke und Erkenntnisse auf vielfältige Weise zum Ausdruck brachten.

Die im Rahmen des Gottesdienstes gesammelte Kollekte von 228 Euro kommt dem Patenschaftsprogramm in Ruanda zugute und unterstützt unser Patenkind Dina und andere Kinder auf ihrem Weg zu einem selbstbestimmten Leben.“

At the beginning of March, the Protestant Primary School in Eisenach organised a project week to mark the annual World Day of Prayer. We received the following brief report from the headteacher:

„As part of our project week for the World Day of Prayer, the children at our Protestant Primary School in Eisenach organised a special service centred on community, responsibility and global learning. The focus was on children from Nigeria, Rwanda and many other parts of the world.
The pupils engaged intensively with the topic of children’s rights. Issues such as the right to clean water, education and leisure were not only explored theoretically, but also reflected upon creatively and personally. It became clear just how different children’s living conditions are around the world – and at the same time, how much we can learn from one another.

It was particularly important to the children to take a positive and appreciative view of the lives of their peers in other countries. They discovered commonalities, developed an understanding of differences and recognised how valuable solidarity and mutual support are.
The lovingly organised service at St Anne’s Church (in Eisenach) provided a space for thoughts, prayers and contributions from the children, who expressed their impressions and insights in a variety of ways.

The collection of 228 euros taken during the service will go towards the sponsorship programme in Rwanda, supporting our sponsored child Dina and other children on their journey towards a self-determined life.“
