As a network for young filmmakers, Listen Up! gave the "green light" to 15 youth teams worldwide to produce short documentaries about what may be the most important questions of our time. They offer the films on DVD along with associated curriculum materials.

Since 1991, Global Action Project (G.A.P.) has worked with young people, specifically those most affected by injustice, to build the knowledge, tools, and relationships needed to produce thought-provoking media on issues that affect them and their communities, and use their media for dialogue and to build community power.

Demonstrating the power of technology to engage middle- and high-school-age youth, Adobe Youth Voices (AYV) provides breakthrough learning experiences using video, multimedia, digital art, web, animation, and audio tools that enable youth to explore and comment on their world. They have compiled a variety of free and low-cost resources to help integrate youth media into classrooms or out-of-classroom programs.

This is a program of the Jane Goodall Institute that inspires young people through community service and service learning. With tens of thousands of young people in almost 100 countries, the Roots & Shoots network connects youth of all ages who share a desire to create a better world. Young people identify problems in their communities and take action.

This innovative program combines the passion, connectivity, and resources of Generation Y with the solutions of grassroots social entrepreneurs around the world to create change on a global scale. Young people-anywhere in the United States-can start an NGC Team on their high school campus. Once formed, teams select one of NGC's global partner projects and set goals around three main objectives: 1) educate their community about the challenges faced by their partner project, 2) advocate on behalf of a pressing global issue, and 3) raise the financial resources necessary to effect real change.

What Kids Can Do promotes perceptions of young people as valued resources, not problems, and to advocate for learning that engages students as knowledge creators and not simply test takers. They bring youth voices to policy debates about school, society, and world affairs through their publications and multimedia projects created by youth worldwide.
