Aiysha Whitfield: What does HOME mean to you?

7/12/2016

 
Social media is a powerful tool to express opinions. Social movements around the world have used the internet as a platform to communicate, organise, and share information that impacts lives. Some of the most known movements have been when the shoewear brand TOMS created the one-day-without-shoes-campaign on Instagram, or the #bringbackourgirls campaign where even the first lady of the United States participated, to call upon extremists in Nigeria to release kidnapped girls.
This year, the Oxford Human Rights Festival is focussing on the theme HOME. In the run up to the festival in March, we will be uploading videos on our Instagram and Twitter accounts of them, our supporters and followers, and of people around the Oxford area and beyond telling us what HOME means to them.
Home means something different to everybody: it could mean love, it could mean security, it could be comfort or it could mean sorrow. We would love to hear your voice and see what home means to you.
Get involved!
1) Think about what home means to you.
2) Grab your phone, laptop, camera or anything with a video recording device and say what home means to you in a sentence, word or gesture.
3) The video can be up to 30 seconds long.
4) Once you have taken the video email it to us or tag us on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook.
5) We will then share your video on the OxHRF Instagram and add you to our collection of ideas.
6) Last but not least follow us on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook!

    Throughout the semester members of the student committee will take turns to write a blog. It might be about organising the Festival, it might be about something else they are doing in or away from Brookes, it might be thoughts on our theme of home. Check in regularly to find out!
