Great post! I am convinced that video recording can be a huge asset for learning purposes. Not only for collective learning of the viewers but also the "actors" themselves.

Hi Rituu! Here you have my answers:

1) The stories are selected by each group of youth telling the stories together in a circle. That secures that decision-making stays with them. They do so defining a common criteria on significance.

2) Yes, we asked the partner to select a sample that was gender balanced.

Thanks for posting Soledad. i appreciate the work you do...very much! I had two queries. Please could you share the challenges you faced in shortlisting stories. Also did you consider gender lens in selecting students for the participatory video?
