A lesson to examine and discuss the humanitarian situation in Venezuela and the principle of neutrality. The economic crisis in Venezuela has been frequently reported in the news, but behind these headlines, there is a serious and growing humanitarian crisis. Many thousands of people are going hungry and hospitals are short of essential medicines. These lesson activities use two short videos to discuss the implications of the crisis on people’s everyday lives and the importance of the humanitarian principles of neutrality and independence.
