TakingITGlobal is a Canadian non-profit organization that uses use the power of online community to facilitate global education, social entrepreneurship, and civic engagement for millions of youth worldwide. For the past four years, TakingITGlobal has been delivering the Adobe Youth Voices program – a youth media program that empowers young people from around the world to communicate their ideas, exhibit their potential, and take action in their communities. Through the use of 21st century media tools, young people are exposed to the new unique ways they can capture a moment and share it with a global audience. Throughout the year, young people create media projects – digital photographs, documentaries, animation series, music videos and much more as a form of self-expression. In many cases young artists use their media pieces to raise awareness about certain issues they are passionate about or are involved with.

In May 2013, TakingITGlobal had the opportunity to exhibit the works of young artists at the Art Fusion event in Toronto, bringing to life the creative confidence within youth and allowing audiences from the all around to witness all aspects of the world – social, political, environmental, educational - from a young artists perspective.
