A Moment is a transportation device that takes the listeners from where they are to where the storyteller wants to bring them. A story has a start, a middle and an end. A story has a time, place, and conditions around it. Through the first series of our Moment’s portal, you will travel to Egypt, Kenya, Irak, Brasil, India, Sri Lanka, and Nepal. You will meet makers, hackers, designers, and community builders who face challenges related to humanitarian response after an earthquake, setback after a building collapse, the support of the global community in times of financial difficulties, or the peer-to-peer mentorship and empowerment of diversity in tech, personal career paths and how a goat ate the plan.
A Moment’s Portal tells how a community of concern overcomes challenges together, how people felt when they really felt carried by the Global Innovation Gathering and why despite the common belief, Innovation is not only a ‘western affair’.
A Moment’s Portal is a concept first introduced to Daniela by Yannis during the Campo Virtual Latino- a digital Virtual Campus aimed at empowering social workers, grassroots and environmental communities in Latin America through digital literacy and building empathy through the new digital means.
In this opening feature episode, you will get to know Fadia, the spokeswoman and community catalyst from Global Innovation Gathering.
