HLS Student Wins Internews “Every Human Has Rights Media Award”

Clara Long ‘11 has been working on a web-based documentary project called Border Stories.  As she and her partners put it, “Border Stories, a web-based documentary exploring the length of the longest boundary between the developed and developing world, is an effort to promote tolerance by showcasing the humanity behind border issues. We present a mosaic of hyper-focused films from both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border that illustrate, among other rights, everyone’s right to live in freedom and safety, and to work and get a salary.”

Internews, a non-profit organization dedicated “to empower local media worldwide,” recently awarded Border Stories their Every Human Has Rights Media Award in a public ceremony.  Check out Border Stores here.
