The Local Changemakers Course
One step forwards
One step forwards
One Step Forwards is a simple role-play exercise that helps people to recognise and think about how different aspects of our identity such as gender, class, ethnicity and religious identity can lead to different kinds of privilege and disadvantage. Participants are each given a character. They line up against one side of the room and take a step towards the other side each time their character would agree with a statement made by the facilitator. The gap between those with privileges and those without grows as statements are made.
On this page you can download character cards and statements designed for a range of regional contexts.
