I Am Interchange immerses you in the world of adventure journalism, where we fearlessly explore the monumental global changes, inequalities, and urgent issues surrounding the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Through raw, unfiltered storytelling, we dive into the tension within these goals and share the stories from the front lines of systems change.
An interchange is a place on a highway where you leave the road you are on, to take a different direction. It's where traffic all comes together and decides which way they want to go. It turns and twists and goes over and under. I think that is what we do at Interchange, except instead of traffic it's ideas and passions and beliefs and expectations and stereotypes and fears. It's our life's "highway." It's where people that may never "pass" each other in everyday life, come together and share our journeys. It is a safe place to explore where we are going, how we will get there and the different routes that we can choose to take.
