Big things start small. We start with a camera, a workshop, and a story. Global Video Letters works with local community activists, NGO’s and youth to use film to inspire social change. Most importantly, we teach youth the skills they need to tell their own stories about what they see, experience, and want to share with the world.
Our workshops include human rights concepts, social advocacy, and the art of film making
