APPENDIX 2: ADOBE PROJECT GRANT RECIPIENTS
The 2020 Adobe Project Grant recipients have found innovative ways to continue to connect and inspire their
young creatives throughout the global pandemic. 25 organizations revamped their in person programming to
actively engage and create virtual spaces for creativity. These programs became outlets for expression and
creativity, and helped form a sense of "normalcy" and community in the midst of all the uncertainties during the
COVID 19 pandemic.
This section is laid out by the following types of programming:
Collaborative
Community
Skill Development
Mentoring
Summer Intensive
COLLABORATIVE
GlobalGirl Media Greece (Athens, Greece)
Initially in response to the COVID 19 pandemic, Global Girl
Media Greece decided to pause their regular in-person
programming and collaborate with their global chapters for
a video series titled CORONA #IRL. 16 young females from
8 different countries took part in this global, collaborative
program to produce short, journalistic videos that showcase
their life and experiences in their community during the early days of the COVID 19 pandemic.
In addition to this, over the summer months, Global Girl Media Greece delivered an intensive summer program in
Athens, Greece where 16 local, refugee, and migrant young women collaborated to create a mini video series,
Another Athens. This video series showcases the neighborhoods, stories, individuals and events in Athens that
inspire these young women. The curation of this mini video series aims to fight refugee and migrant stereotypes
found in the media.
