This PowerPoint Review Game on World International Organizations can be used in geography, civics, and government. It incorporates both Non-governmental (NGOs) and Intergovernmental (IGOs) — because they play a significant role in shaping global connections. These organizations, such as the United Nations, World Trade Organization, and World Health Organization, work to maintain peace, promote human rights, ensure economic stability, and address pressing issues like climate change and poverty on a global scale. By learning about these organizations, students gain a deeper understanding of the interconnectedness of our world and the importance of collaboration among nations.

Students will be given scenarios (1 per slide) and, working with their teams, will decide which organization would be the best fit.

This PowerPoint focuses on the following International Organizations:

• NGOs vs IGOs
• Red Cross
• World Trade Organization (WTO)
• North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO)
• Mercy Ships
• World Wildlife Fund (WWF)
• Human Rights Watch Organization (HRW)
• World Health Organization (WHO)
• United Nations (UN)
• World Bank
• United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO)
• European Union (EU)
• International Monetary Fund (IMF)
• Doctors Without Borders (Médecins Sans Frontières)
• Save the Children

I designed this 5-page activity for my students to engage with during the Fall or at the start of the year, focusing on the Social Studies Citizenship unit. Students will read various scenarios and determine whether each one exemplifies good citizenship. This activity is perfect for reinforcing rules and character traits at the beginning of the year. I intend to use it as an independent task after a few days of instruction on citizenship. It can also serve as a graded assessment, quiz, or a follow-up activity after a mini-lesson on rules or citizenship. Be sure to check out my Good Citizen or Not sorting center, along with other citizenship and respect resources!
