One Connection.
Two Continents.
Shared Purpose.
Sustainable Connexions International connects young people and communities across Indianapolis and Ghana through transformative experiences in leadership, photography, storytelling, cultural learning and service. Young people discover their voices, broaden their view of the world and develop the skills and confidence to create positive change—at home and across the globe.
Two Places. One Generation.
A Brighter Tomorrow.
Rooted in Community. Connected Across
Cultures.
Our young people may live thousands of miles apart, but they share aspirations, curiosity in exploring different cultures, creativity, and the capacity to lead. Sustainable Connexions creates meaningful connections between young people in different communities—helping them understand their own communities, learn from one another, and discover their responsibility to make both stronger.

Through the Eyes
of Youth
See the World Differently.
Through the Eyes of Youth (TTEOY) is a youth development program for middle and high school students. Through photography, storytelling, cultural exchange, and service, participants explore their communities and share their perspectives with peers across cultures.
Grounded in photovoice, an evidence-based participatory model, TTEOY's curriculum uses photography as a tool for exploration and storytelling. Young people learn to see their communities and themselves with new eyes. They practice visual storytelling, reflection, dialogue, and servant leadership as they learn from one another and identify ways to serve their communities.
