School teacher

Iran

I’m a secondary school teacher, holding after-school classes in which the students learn English by learning about a wide range of topics including human rights, equality, environment; Topics the educational system doesn’t have time for!

Most actions targeting the environment in my country are done voluntarily on a limited scale. That’s why I applied to the WFD to learn and talk about how democracy can save the environment, considering the complex situation of democracy in my country.
