Welcoming the World

We worked with Creative Partnerships London East and South to deliver a project called ‘Welcoming the World’ with schools in the five Host Boroughs - Hackney, Waltham Forest, Greenwich, Tower Hamlets and Newham.

The project encouraged young people in 19 schools across the five Host Boroughs to think about how they want to welcome the world to their communities in the run up to 2012.
The schools worked with film, photography and music experts on one of two projects – a photography project called ‘My World’ and a film project called 'Our World'.

The project began in early 2008 and finished with a celebratory activity on 4 July 2008.

The project was funded by the Arts Council England through the Creative Partnerships initiative.
