Faces2hearts is a vlogging project powered by the European Union, which takes young people to some of the most remote places on earth to report on EU development projects that are changing people’s lives for the better. How does it work? Faces2Hearts will pair a local vlogger and a European vlogger to discover communities beyond faces and reveal compelling stories to the world.
