Brazil: Engaging Voices of Favela's Youth

The project aims to train underprivileged youth from the favelas of Rio de Janeiro to become citizen journalists by documenting issues that surround them, via posting blogs, short videos or images to the VO1CE website. Participants will take workshops in writing, video recording and photography as a prerequisite. The goal is to empower voices that are often disfranchised and give them interactive space to share their ideas and advocate solutions.
