Inarguably one of the most important and influential countries of the next century, and home to one of the worlds most changing social environments; India is the location of our first Project workshop in 2010. Come with us to work with some of the varied NGOs and nonprofits that have helped shape India's development projects over the last 50 years. Learn the skills necessary to work successfully and profitably with these organizations in one of the most culturally diverse countries on Earth.
During this informative, exciting and challenging Project, we'll be working with NGOs of varying specialization all the way from agriculture to health care. Workshop attendees will be given the task of working closely with their NGO or nonprofit to compile a compelling visual or multimedia narrative that shows the work of the organization.
Our NGO / nonprofit Project workshops allow for freedom in scheduling based on the photographer's and nonprofit's vision. Upon arrival in country, each student will meet with the instructors on a one-on-one basis to discuss their photography, their assigned nonprofits and develop a strategy based on the student's goals for the workshop. After this process, we stand at the ready to help attendees navigate their way to the successful conclusion of the Project. We want this workshop to be tailored to each student on a personal level so that you leave with the best experience possible and the strongest portfolio of work in this field.
