Courage to Care: Upstander Education Resources
Knowing how to stand up for others impacted by prejudice or discrimination can be challenging. So we’ve worked with Courage to Care to create 12 lessons where students use statistics, personal behaviour, and community action to explore what it means to be an Upstander. Designed for Years 8 - 10, these lessons integrate curriculum-aligned Maths and HPE to champion Upstander behaviour.
About the resources
These resources provide teachers with accessible and engaging lessons and materials that educate about the dangers of racism, prejudice, discrimination and bystander behaviour, supporting and empowering their students in changing from bystander attitudes and behaviour to Upstander action.

With thanks to our partner Courage to Care
Courage to Care is a universal not-for-profit organisation providing Upstander Programs that educate about the dangers of racism, antisemitism, discrimination and bystander behaviour.
Guided by the belief that ordinary people have the power to make a positive difference to the lives of others by being Upstanders, the face to face programs inspire participants to make a real difference in their community by standing up and taking action, creating real change. Upstander Programs are available to schools in most states free of charge.
