Abstract:Nowadays we face a struggle between the perceptions of civil rights. Whether it is generation-related, gender or cultural-motivated, or others, we face the fact that although rights and freedoms are being mediatized and accessible for anyone, people understand these rights differently. Therefore, it is important to find a way to help children understand these rights. The article develops an argument for recognizing the importance of children’s rights for citizenship education. It also outlines a perspective on how children’s rights can be taught as civil rights using theater pedagogy methods.
Keywords:Theater; pedagogy; civil rights; school; democracy; children’s rights
