Astrea Media, a non-profit organization dedicated to producing media projects on human rights and environmental issues, is seeking interns for Summer 2020.

We are currently nearing completion of Silent U., a documentary that follows a dynamic group of students and professors as they try to reveal and transform the hidden culture of violence that permeates their campuses. We are also developing a cultural website to help the arts community during the COVID-19 crisis. The internship will include working on both projects.
