The SKYRIVER process&;a video communication tool developed by Timothy Kennedy to allow Native Alaskans in remote areas to express their concerns to elected officials&;has received a great deal of recognition for its innovative use of video and film tools to enhance and strengthen citizen participation in the decision-making processes of government. The collaborative process led to direct communication between the villages and government officials and, ultimately, to positive social change. This book provides a detailed review of how the SKYRIVER process evolved and the many lessons learned from its development.

Timothy Kennedy is chair of the Communications Department and professor at the University of Tampa. He is a pioneering expert in the field of development communication, and spent eleven years in Alaska developing communication between remote Eskimo villages and the government using videography.
