The OneMinutesJr project
The OneMinutesJr project gives young people between 12 and 20 years of age from many corners of the globe the

and distances through 60 second videos.
The OneMinutesJr project now contains more than 2000 video clips and provides a fascinating insight into youth culture and interests around the globe. Supported by the European Cultural Foundation, the One Minutes Jr. Foundation and UNICEF amongst others, the one minute videos on the project web site vary a great deal, some have been sent in by individuals, others are results from workshops where young people are taught video production, editing and publishing skills.
