About the project:

Youth Artivists for Change is a project focused on empowering young filmmakers, storytellers, artists and activists in producing films and performances on human rights/LGBTQ rights and gender equality issues. The project aims to promote the use of arts in addressing human rights issues. We aim to train youth artists and activists in filmmaking, storytelling and activism skills and enable them to work on their own arts projects. This project brings together 17 organizations from Kosovo, Serbia, Macedonia, Albania and The Netherlands in the field of human rights/LGBT Rights, advocacy, youth work and Arts & Culture, including existing film festivals (The International Human Rights Film Festival Albania, PriFest Film Festival Kosovo and Skopje Film Festival).
