The Organization for Visual Progression (OVP) is dedicated to providing individuals and organizations with the opportunity to create and utilize visual media in their advocacy efforts and social justice campaigns.
Our goals are threefold: to amplify voices, amplify issues, and to promote alternative media infrastructures.
We amplify voices by offering intensive visual media advocacy trainings to community leaders, NGO representatives and university students working to bring about progressive social change in areas marginalized by established media infrastructures. OVP also supports participants in the production and distribution of visual media productions.
We amplify marginalized issues by collaborating with university students, communities and social justice organizations in the creation, distribution, and contextualization of visual media productions.
Our ultimate goal is to promote alternative media infrastructures that allow people and organizations excluded from existing media infrastructures to communicate with target audiences.
