The project
Ohio University commissioned Amizade to put together a documentary with global perspectives about the pandemic and how communities around the world are responding to the crisis. The final audience for this project is sophomores at OU who are being introduced to the concept of global citizenship.
From home, participants could share theirs views by recording themselves on the phone, and Amizade assembled the pieces using storytelling.
