Public Service Announcement

Introduction

You have been studying the components of a Public Service Announcement. By now, you should know what makes a PSA effective. You should also have a deep understanding of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Your mission, should you choose to accept (and you will) will be to create a Public Service Announcement that addresses a human rights issue within your community.

Task

Your task is to read through the series of news articles that talk about human rights issues within the community. After reading all of the articles, choose the one that interests you the most. After choosing it, return to the article and answer the corresponding questions. YOU DO NOT NEED TO ANSWER THE QUESTIONS FOR ALL OF THE NEWS ARTICLES.
