Upstream Stories
stories that move beyond the screen
Stories are everywhere. Around the corner, up the stream. In Upstream Stories we support people in telling their own unique stories in a digital form, connecting people both on and off the screen.


We're all about participatory media
Upstream Stories is a non-profit organization, working to offer a voice to people with fewer opportunities through participatory media. We do:
- Digital Storytelling projects/workshops
- Participatory photography projects/workshops
- Facilitator workshops (learn how to facilitate the methods)
- Developing learning materials
Some of the Digital Stories created during our workshops
