I DEFEND RIGHTS
Featured Story:Cultivating Gratitude, by Fatimah Muhammad"In every part of the world, people are inspired by human rights. We wanted to hear some of their stories. Memria provided the tools for us to collect the stories and develop a compelling and inexpensive exhibit with a listening station to share these stories with unexpected audiences In libraries, museums, and universities."
Sandra Petersen, Executive Director, Norwegian Human Rights FundTHE LAFF SOCIETY
(FORD FOUNDATION)
Featured Story:'My Time at The Ford Foundation', by Altaf Rahamatulla (4 minutes"For years, we had a "Tell Your Story' button on our website, but literally no one ever submitted anything. That changed when we started using the Memria platform. With its intuitive tools and dashboard. As the association of former employees of the Ford Foundation, our members have lits of stories to tell, and finally, we are hearing and preserving them."

TRAVELLING EXHIBITFeatured Story:'The Best Part of My Generation: Reflections' by Walt Nygard (4 minutes)"We used Memria to set up both a Story-Telling booth and a separate Story-Listening booth as integral parts of a traveling exhibit. The technology was easy, the set-up was very inexpensive and quick, and the results were fantastic. It enhanced the exhibit and encouraged visitors to share their art and their comments. This is a great tool for small and low-budget museums and exhibits like ours.”
