This is Ours is an enrichment program for young people that combines digital photography, storytelling and illustration to communicate personal knowledge about one's local environment. This hands-on workshop and book series, created by students for students all over the world, provides tangible proof to students that they have something important to say, and the global community is their audience
Different Ships, Same Storm is a new program, born of these unprecedented times, that examines and shares the experiences of students affected by a pandemic. It encourages a global conversation between participants as they tap into the power of photography and writing to explore the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their lives. What began as a conversation in Elizabeth Eagle’s photography course at the Packer Collegiate Institute in Brooklyn, New York, has grown into a vital global forum through which students can share their changing worlds. Through an online gallery they are able to see, read and comment on each other's work as it is posted to a community gallery. Different Ships, Same Storm nurtures a growing community of photographers and writers from all over the world who are constantly reflecting, learning and sharing during these difficult times.
The Mizizi Project is a program designed to further science education and cross-cultural learning by uniting students and educators on opposite sides of the globe within a single collaborative virtual learning experience. By delivering a shared science curriculum through synchronous and asynchronous video conferencing, Mizizi will create a "global classroom" enhanced by diversity.
