Upcoming Webinar: Civic Literacy

Ahead of the 2015 federal election, ABC Life Literacy Canada and Elections Canada have partnered to create A Guide to Voting: A Literacy Practitioner Workbook for Voting in the 2015 Federal Election.

The Guide will arm literacy practitioners with the knowledge and resources to introduce civic literacy into the classroom by addressing the following key topics:

  • How elections work
  • How to register to vote
  • Methods for voting
  • Types of identification needed to vote ?
  • What happens at polling stations ?
