Summary
To bring body and self confidence back to the youth of today, with the internet becoming more powerful than ever it is all too easy for people to rely on it as a means of communication to the outside world and even create a second profile and image resulting in self rejection. I want to gather a team of volunteers and do a series of photoshoots with young individuals communicating through a photograph of themselves that would be exhibited and act as an expression and inspiration for the young and provide an insight and better understanding for the older generation

I think it is a wonderful idea, young people today have so many negative issues with their body image and self worth, its about time we all got back to the basic issues that surround us in every day life. Good luck Laura.

This is a fantastic idea with huge potential to influence people's thinking about body image. Best of luck Laura!

Top idea. Socrates said that "the unexamined life is not worth living". Anything that promotes self reflection and appreciation of what you've got instead of fakes and fronts has got to be good.
If that can be transfered to help the uninformed or misinformed to understand youth issues and values then you'll have really achieved something worthwhile.
