The aim of this exercise is to introduce the concept of people being able to live together in peace through understanding common things in the different cultures and appreciating differences. These exercises are usually done through the use of photos, however as introducing cameras in the prison environment could be problematic, the exercise could be transformed by using magazine pictures and asking the prisoners to create charts to represent their culture KEY WORDS Diversity - values - prejudices - communication Learning outcomes 1 - Understanding diversity 2 - Improving communication 3 - Sharing ideas and feeling 4 - Addressing racism and prejudice
