Metal 2

Описание: This video describes a range of small activities that are for all those who are interested in working with metal.

It shows how metal is recycled to make wheelbarrows; tins are changed into oil lamps, and recovered aluminium is melted to make cooking pots, saucepans or watering cans.

This short film is part of the skills development campaign "Learning and Working" developed by UNESCO-UNEVOC.

It contains a set of video and print materials that showcase some practical examples of different activities persons can undertake in an informal setting in order to take up sustainable livelihoods, using simple and easily accessible materials and tools.

The films are accompanied by corresponding booklets. Click on http://www.unevoc.unesco.org/fileadmi... to access the booklet for this short film.

Occupational Health and Safety

Some scenes in the video show unsafe working methods and conditions. Handling burning liquid or molten metal is a dangerous task that requires extreme caution on behalf of the worker.
It is the facilitator's task to draw the participants' attention to these potentially dangerous situations and provide them with information on how to "be safe" when working with metal, for example by wearing protective clothes, gloves and shoes.
