Storytelling for International Development: An In-Depth Workshop

At this CORE Group Young Professionals Network (YPN) event, we will discuss storytelling for international development and particularly the use of film and video. How is your organization telling its stories? What challenges have you encountered? What would you like to do differently going forward? Jack Gordon, co-founder of Digital Development Communications (DDC), will share essential points to consider for medium, message, and audience. This program will be geared towards communications and program staff who are interested in storytelling, whether you have experience creating media projects or not.
