Democracy And Politics, Lessons For Beyond The Classroom

Graphic artist and activist Fahmi Reza is filling in the gaps in political literacy through his popular #KelasDemokrasi, both online and through in-person sessions at local universities. However, his classes have been disrupted at 7 public universities so far. We ask Dr Benjamin Loh, Senior Lecturer, School of Media & Communication at Taylor's University why and how should lessons on democracy and politics be taught.
