Reisa Levine

Chapter 2.1 in Emerging Digital Spaces in Contemporary Society, 2010, pp 50-52 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract CitizenShift (CS) and its French language sister site Parole Citoyenne (PC) are two award-winning web platforms exploring today’s social issues through films, photos, articles, blogs and podcasts. Born out of the National Film Board of Canada in 2004, and now housed at the Institut du Nouveau Monde, the CS and PC social media networks are community-driven spaces designed for filmmakers, activists and ‘ordinary’ citizens to share content and voice opinions.
