I photographed the YouthNoise DROP campaign on Saturday.
YouthNoise and Parsons The New School for Design, co-sponsored and partnered to launch DROP: a campaign focused on bringing creative young people together to create actions with local, national, and international impacts on the water crisis.
This day-long summit served as the initial step in a personal and team campaign for 75 emerging social entrepreneurs and activists in the greater New York metropolitan area. Part awareness building, part community building and 100% focused on social change, this summit offered opportunities for committed young people to dive into the complex world of water issues facing our global community.
It was a well organized event. Students were passionate about service and learned tangible ways to realize their projects. It was great to photograph especially because I learned quite a bit (that I can apply to Pedagogy of Photography and teach my students) by listening to the speakers (UNICEF, ALLOY...)that I was photographing. We saw clips of a documentary called FLOW which is a must see!
