Shelter is a documentary about humanitarian design.

about the Shelter: connect workshops

Shelter: connect workshops help students connect with distant communities to share ideas for addressing urgent shelter needs.

 

Taking place on-site in U.S. college and university studios, the workshops are led by the Shelter filmmakers, and empower design students with both the storytelling tools and the information-sharing platform they need to join the design-for-good movement and amplify their research and study of humanitarian design. The workshops are media-intensive and can include videoconferencing with distant collaborators.
