For each REL, World Trust uses an integrated approach for their curricula, consisting of visual and performing art as well as slides, presentations, written materials, and handouts. This approach supports the deconstruction of deeply held cultural beliefs by addressing the pre-conscious brain.
World Trust uses the arts – story, film, and music – to activate our habits and associations around fairness and justice, allowing our brain to draw connections to our personal experience. Through deep internal reflection, a collective engagement in the systems and structures that hold racism in place emerges.
