TY - JOUR PY - 2007// TI - Amplifying youth voices in the developing world JO - New directions for youth development A1 - Fotenos, Saori A1 - Rohatgi, Deepti SP - 117 EP - 126 VL - 2007 IS - 116 N2 - Low-literacy youth in the slums of Brazil have been historically unequipped to share their ideas on how to improve their lives, because outside of the spoken word, it is difficult for them to express their thoughts persuasively. The Amplifying Voices afterschool video program piloted at Projeto UerĂª in Rio de Janeiro shows that youth can leverage technological tools to voice their perspectives on social issues relevant to themselves and their communities.
