As the Covid-19 pandemic swept through the world, our FRIENDS from the Philippines, Thailand, Bhutan, Malaysia and Cambodia were also affected. While the uncertainty around the globe affected all fields of life, FRIENDS’ digital stories transformed into a way of connecting internationally, at least virtually, while no other international travel was allowed.
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, another Digital Storytelling contest was conducted in 2022. The winning video creators in the Dewey International University are Rothnika Chhunchhom, Chhiv Teang Ly, Sangmoni Chou, and Leaphea Kong. Their digital stories, as well as the many other submitted, can be viewed at the following link.
First Digital Storytelling Contest at DIU (2020)

The Contest was conducted in the framework of Intercultural Passport virtual module’s piloting stage at DIU in 2020. You can watch all videos submitted in the Contest below.
