Over the past two months, youth particpants from last year's PeaceJam conference have been active in sharing information about COVID-19 throughout their communities.
Over 100 youth were given the opportunity to participate in a 4-week video-making competition. Each week, youth were tasked with creating videos around one of four themes (Hand-washing, Physical Distance, Maintaining a Healthy Life-Style, and How one can Help their Community). Twenty youth uploaded videos of themselves and their peers. These videos had over 4,000 views, and 150 shares.
During the hand-washing videos, youth made Tippy - Taps (or, hand-washing stations). After making these stations in their communities, neighbors were interested in learning how to make their own. So youth helped create hand-washing stations throughout their community.
Project reports on GlobalGiving are posted directly to globalgiving.org by Project Leaders as they are completed, generally every 3-4 months. To protect the integrity of these documents, GlobalGiving does not alter them; therefore you may find some language or formatting issues.
If you donate to this project or have donated to this project, you can receive an email when this project posts a report. You can also subscribe for reports without donating.
