Self-expression, collaboration, and persistence – just a few of the life skills young people learn through creative media making. This collection, including media produced by youth, builds on the resources created by the Adobe Youth Voices (AYV) program. The AYV curricula, toolkits, and stories have been designed to inspire young people to be thoughtful and intentional in their media making, that is, to Create with Purpose.
Adobe Youth Voices, originally a program of the Adobe Foundation, collaborated with a global network of partners to provide educators with the tools and professional development to support youth media making. Now, the curriculum and training materials from the program are freely available to any educator interested in guiding youth to create original media works on issues they care about.
