Synopsis:
In "Laos: It's Alive!", "fun" isn't part of the curriculum in many Asian countries. School usually means rote learning and passing exams. In Laos, the Participatory Development Training Centre is trying to change this by introducing play-and-learn activities in schools. Working with youth and children volunteers, they are ushering in slow but decisive change in how teachers relate to students. The results are transforming everyone involved. Can ordinary people help save our planet which is under siege from many environmental crises? How can we change attitudes and lifestyles to consume fewer resources? In this Asian TV series "Saving the Planet", we profile six successful initiatives that combine knowledge, skills and creativity to achieve a cleaner and healthier environment through local action. The stories were identified from a regional competition, and produced by TVE Asia Pacific with local partners in Cambodia, India, Laos, Nepal, The Philippines, and Thailand.
