Mitra is passionate about getting mercury out of the environment, particularly the use of this poisonous metal in dental fillings.
Making this story, says Mitra, has made me “more focused – determined” to achieve my goals.
“No More Mercury” – created at Digital Storytelling Wokshop-02

When John Ferreira was murdered and his son assaulted while on a New Year’s Eve walk along the Iron Horse Trail in 2010 – a walking trail near their home in Kitchener Ontario Canada – the neighbourhood was thrown into grief and disbelief.
How could this happen? Who are these people who killed my neighbour and friend? Is this neighbourhood still safe for my family?
The Waterloo Region Crime Prevention Council started a collaborative initiative with residents to regain a sense of security and optimism in the Victoria Park neighbourhood.
One of the techniques the Council’s community engagement coordinator Juanita Metzger used in her work was digital storytelling. Juanita was a storyteller at Latitudes and Longitudes’ inaugural workshop in the spring of 2011. She took the skills she learned there back to community. (You can see Juanita’s story “Lucky Instinct” here.)
Working with resident Aimee Polevoy – and with support from Latitudes and Longitudes project director Dwight Storring – they created a digital story to document Aimee’s journey from the first shock of her friend John’s death to her commitment to making her community a better place to live.
