Art. Perspective. Possibility.

Perspectives: Our Communities, Our World

In 2011, TakingITGlobal engaged nearly 3,000 youth in 18 countries in creating multimedia pieces about their communities, their issues, their hopes, and their demands. Each media piece is unique and has a distinct youth voice. Some call for action, while others call attention to an issue. Some tell stories about a community, a person, or a moment in time. Each project provides a unique insight into the aspirations, ideas, and creativity of a young person somewhere in the world.
