The Citizen Website is organised under four themes: Activism, Heritage, Identity and Routes. It is designed as a visually rich collection with corresponding artefacts, biographies and archival material – including audio and film clips for student research. Through an interactive timeline, students are introduced to specific historical events which are illustrated through the collection on the website. Tools also include an interactive scrapbook and glossary.
