Global Youth Cultural Exchange
A global exchange of voices, stories, and perspectives from youth around the world.
100 Voices. 6 Continents. One Mirror.
Youth voices and stories from this region: interviews, reflections, and shared experiences from the Mirror Project.
Anya Zenooz is a student filmmaker and author based in San Diego, CA. As the founder of the Mirror Project, she led a global initiative investigating youth experiences with stereotypes, a journey captured in the documentary, Reflections.
Anya is particularly interested in the evolving role of social media and its profound influence on teen self-perception and social narratives. This focus extends to her writing; she is the author of Debunking Myths, a book helping middle schoolers navigate misinformation. Outside of her media projects, Anya is a student leader active in Model UN and Mock Trial and serves as co-captain of her school's dance team.
