University Lives Collection


The University Lives Collection is working to create a collective video snapshot of university experience worldwide.

(note: UniLives.com launched in October 2009)

Students worldwide are invited to produce and submit short ethnographic films about their university experience, using whatever technology they have. After their films are submitted online, and prizes have been offered for the very best submissions, the films will be catalogued and published online together with commentary by higher education experts.

For more information, to sponsor this project, or to get involved, please write an email to planning@WorldUniversityProject.org, and one of our project managers will get back to you.

Questions We Are Asking

This project is partly about finding the topics that matter to students, giving them the chance to set the agenda for the material they produce. No matter what topic students choose, they will be expected to use whatever tools they have to show the places, people, resources, practices, and wider issues involved in the stories they tell about their university experiences.  More information is available on the UniLives.com Ideas & Topics page.

Sponsorship Opportunities

Reaching students at thousands of universities worldwide, the University Lives Collection is a great platform for building your brand, advertising for future employees, or producing case studies for your products. We are open to sponsorships with ethical global and local brands, in these ways:
  • Donate your products as prizes
  • Provide technology support (provided by Automattic, Inc.)
  • Financially sponsor the project overall in a major way
