Migration from Yucatan Youth to London Adulthood: Acculturation, Personal development, and the Pursuit of Opportunity

Description
-
The purpose of this portrait project is to educate and familiarize viewers with the intercultural experience of migration through a personal development lens and critical evaluation of the effects of migration on the process of transitioning from childhood to adulthood.
This project was created in order to motivate young Canadians to learn intercultural sensitivity and foster a sense of global citizenship by engaging with different cultures. The intention of the project was to conduct an interview with Andre Cochegrus, a local Hispanic community partner. The researched questions focused on the experience of migration and its impact on his personal development. Through the use of emotional music, narration showcasing cultural and historical context, and stylistic B roll footage, the portrait demonstrates an immersive intercultural evaluation of migration from Mexico to Canada during early adolescence.
The portrait demonstrates the effects of the process of acculturation, the role of traditions, and key cultural factors that affect personal development.
Through the use of academic resources and personal first-hand accounts, the video provides a holistic understanding of the experience of adolescent migration from Mexico to Canada.
