Mission and Objectives

GlobalEyes TV is a registered NPO. www.global-eyes.tv hosts program made by & made for youth around the globe. GlobalEyes offers youth media workshops world wide - and encourages & supports youths in expressing & sharing their concerns with a strong voice. In our program we promote intercultural dialogue, education, sustainability, democracy and community building. GlobalEyes TV is an informative, inspiring and entertaining online platform and TV program for youth that shows the world from the perspective of young people from around the globe. GlobalEyes TV's role is to provide a platform, the tools and skills for youths to tell their stories via films to an international audience. The over all objective is to give young ambitious people from all over the world perspectives in the media, to generate intercultural understanding and to build a sustainable international network of young media-activists. Especially with our workshops we support this idea.

Main Projects / Activities

GlobalEyes TV is an internationally accessible world culture TV format for youth – with films produced in our workshops and films we receive from partner NGOs. The objectives of GloablEyes are to create a global network by implementing sustainable media-workshops in collaboration with international youth organisations, foundations and NGOs in various countries. We want to encourage youths to become ambassadors for their communities and to contribute to the program regularly. In October 2010 we travelled with 10 young people from Berlin to Jenin / Palestine and held an intercultural Palestinian-German film-workshop at Cinema Jenin. In March 2011 together with local Haitian partner NGOs we hosted a 4-week workshop in earthquake camps in Haiti - as part of the trauma relief efforts of Deutsche Kindernothilfe. We have also hosted youth media workshops in South African Townships (at-risk youth), in impoverished, violent inner-city areas of Kingston / Jamaica, in Thailand, Brazil and Germany.
