media literacy

Q'eros Video Project

The Q'eros Video Project began in March 2007 when two filmmakers from the US collaborated with an activist from an indigenous community in the Peruvian Andes. Together, we began a video education project in the remote mountain community of Q'eros, introducing basic video production skills and exploring how the technology could be used to support the communities of Q'eros and their goal of sustainable development.
