BILBAO, Spain, November 12, 2010 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- This Project Involves the Vulnerable Groups We Work With Filming Community Videos Using Mobile Phones, to Document Their Particular Situation.
Project Habla was born from the principle that communication is at the service of the community. It is a pioneering initiative in social communication run by the Anesvad Foundation, which seeks to allow the vulnerable people we work with to tell their own stories in first person, through films made on mobile phones.
Project Habla is a documental and participatory exercise and a social motivator, which aims to inform and raise awareness of the problems encountered in countries in the Southern Hemisphere and their struggle to access healthcare. It also aims to bring about critical thinking that will contribute to re-addressing the inequality and social injustice that occurs in the world and prevents access to basic rights.
