Program Dates & Locations: Filmmakers and Photographers

Unite For Sight film/documentary and photographer volunteers document the voices of patients who receive sight-restoring eye care through Unite For Sight programs. The videos and photos promote awareness and information about global eye care needs and also demonstrate the commitment and dedication of Unite For Sight's local partner eye doctors who work tirelessly to provide eye care to those living in extreme poverty.

Photographer and filmmaker volunteers work with Unite For Sight to develop special film and photo projects for advocacy purposes. The opportunity allows filmmakers, photographers, and students of film and photography, an opportunity to participate in and learn about development issues while making a significant impact.

“
Because of the context in which I encountered the profound need, I did not come away with a sense of hopelessness or fatalism. Rather, I came away with the strong sense that it was necessary for me, like the Sinha family of ophthalmologists, to take active part in fixing the problems that I had seen. Indeed, it is impossible to spend two weeks with the Sinha family without coming to understand that a single, motivated person is absolutely capable of changing the world.
