Communications workshops in Za’atari continue through the Me/We initiative, and filming has begun. The girls and boys are scripting, filming and producing four short films that share stories of a positive transition in which obstacles are overcome, to reveal their hope—and ability—to change the world around them. We are always amazed by the youth in Za’atari, and their work in this project is no exception. They have shown incredible growth and progress in three short weeks as they learn how communication can help break down walls, and build a path for creative expression. Every step of the way, they exhibit patience and work together as they collectively communicate their stories. In the process, they learn critical thinking skills, and have a lot of fun!
Want to see what’s happening? Stop reading, and let the girls and boys show you. Watch this video, produced by Mohsin Mohi Ud Din, founder and coordinator of the Me/We initiative in Za’atari—showing highlights of the project so far, and the hope that the youth of Syria carry inside of them.
