Hi,



I am a filmmaker/educator looking for examples of

media or art (film/video, photos, performance, etc)

used to bring about change in community awarness

and/or public policy.  In addition, I am also

searching for schools or programs that cater to this

form of media studies and community outreach.  Below

is a brief list of some examples I have found so far.

Any assistance you can offer would be greatly

appreciated.



Thanks

shane

**Dr. Barlow's Injury Prevention Program in NYC



"One of her first initiatives was a photo essay that

documented the conditions in Harlem's forty-five

city-run playgrounds. The images—a horror show of

mangled equipment, unpadded surfaces, rodent

infestation, and loitering junkies—were annotated with

data on emergency-room visits for lacerations and

fractures sustained in those playgrounds.
