Through the use of camera phones and social media, teenagers living in the camp upload images and videos to portray an account of life there through their own eyes. This project is supported by Save The Children and seeks to raise awareness of the refugee crisis.

Other Initiatives have stemmed from the projects such as the Za’atari Film Workshop co-sponsored by Voices of the Children. Refugees were invited to submit a film to My Dream, My Right resulting in nine documentary shorts such as this example by Mohamed and Mohamed.
