A Better World - Gender Equality Activity for Youth

Main Library Program Room

Complete an intergalactic mission with this interactive storytelling activity designed to promote gender equality. For primary, junior and intermediate grades. Please register each child attending.

Join us at the Main Library to participate in "A Better World." In recognition of International Day of the Girl Child, we will be participating in "A Better World," an activity provided by the Government of Canada.

"A Better World" is an interactive storytelling activity for youth ages 7 to 12 years designed to spark teamwork, creativity, and big conversations about inclusion, fairness, and gender equality - all through the eyes of a bunch of adventurous robots.

In this activity, you and your adventurers will embark on an intergalactic mission to visit four robot worlds. They’ll read stories, face challenges, and work together to bring back bold ideas for making their own world, Ebarliz, the best it can be for everyone. 

Take a sneak peek into the cosmic worlds of A Better World:

• On Amlie, a shape debate is shaking up who’s in charge
• On Int, some robots refill while others race ahead
• On Arscaly, a new invention has everyone buzzing
• On Orfno, a bouncy adventure leaves some robots behind

Visit Women and Gender Equality Canada for more information about why learning about gender equality at this age is important.
