Students of the World | Alumni

Students of the World (SOW) serves those who serve others by using media to shine a light on the progress of innovative groups working to solve the world's problems. By shifting focus from problems to solutions and empowering young people to use the tools they have at hand-- media and technology-- we envision a generation that redefines what it means to "give back" and places progress at the cente

r of our conversations. Since 2000, SOW has partnered student documentary teams with over 40 innovative social initiatives, producing a wide-range of media, including shorts films, multi-media exhibits, photo essays, journal articles and a feature-length documentary. SOW's work has been used to highlight issues around the globe, on university campuses, in art galleries, regional publications, film festivals and international conferences. SOW is dedicated to telling the stories of those in need and the socially conscious organizations that serve them through the lens of creative, student-generated media.
