Digital international youth work

An easy, accessible way to create short videos

Documentation of the DIY² Lab is available

Making short home videos is a fun way to work creatively, inclusively and thematically and opens up lots of opportunities in international youth work, especially in the digital space. With the help of the Mobile Studio, professional short films can be created using a smartphone.

The DIY² Lab on 11 November 2021 looked at how the Mobile Studio is set up and how it can be used hands-on for educational purposes. Our focus was on the subject of accessibility.

The facilitator of this Lab was Svenja Hoffman, Head of Inclusion at Evangelische Jugendbildungsstätte Nordwalde. She developed the Mobile Studio in early 2021 with a group of students from the Department of Rehabilitation Sciences at TU Dortmund University. In a series of seminars, she carried out various projects using the Mobile Studio with participants with cognitive disabilities.
