Description

The Moral Courage Project is a storytelling initiative of the UD Human Rights Center. This term, students selected to participate in the program examined conceptual frameworks intersecting the studies of human rights, media, and social movements, and learned documentary skills, including interviewing, audio production, and photography. To apply the MCP method, the students were paired with members of Dayton United for Human Rights - a local grassroots effort to establish Dayton as a "human rights city" - and charged to develop audio and visual stories to feature the motivations and actions of human rights heroes in our own community.
