  • Empowering our communities through digital skills

Digital Storytelling & Content Creation Labs

Our content creation labs provide vibrant, community-based spaces in rural areas where marginalized groups especially youth, women, and minorities (such as LGBTQ+ individuals) can learn digital skills, share personal experiences, and produce compelling, rights-focused multimedia content (videos, podcasts, and digital stories). Our storytelling for change approach empowers community members to amplify their voices, fostering empathy and driving positive social perceptions and behavior changes.
