Silence Speaks is an international digital storytelling initiative
supporting the telling and witnessing of stories that all too often
remain unspoken -- of surviving and thriving in the wake of
violence and abuse, armed conflict, or displacement, and of
challenging stigma or marginalization. Our workshops blend oral
history, popular education, and participatory media production
methods, enabling people to create short videos about their own
lives. Stories are shared locally and globally, as tools for
training, community mobilization, and policy advocacy to promote health, gender equality, and human rights.
