About TERJA

Join our TERJA Community Unity Story Exchange Program

Students find their voices by creating true life videos

What?

TERJA Community Unity Story Exchange is a TERJA Foundation program that elevates students’ stories by opening a video portal to global visibility and connection. The objective – to hear and be heard. We facilitate and engage students and mentors from different communities, even world hemispheres apart, in this innovative experiential learning that results in authentic communication immersion.

Why?

Communities today face the challenge of connecting diverse people and viewpoints in cohesive, constructive ways. Instead, people struggle to be heard and to hear others. As a result, we miss opportunities to build consensus and effectively solve problems. • All children need to be seen and heard • All children need the opportunity to see and hear others • All children’s concerns and issues need to be taken seriously Through interactive learning and immersion experiences, students and adults gain the ability to engage in authentic, mindful communication.

How?

We partner students, classrooms, schools, and organizations in the United States with students in other communities in the United States and in other parts of the world. We facilitate the production and video-sharing of stories about themselves and their communities. The range of story topics opens an infinite window into participants’ life experiences and their communities.
