With a background in cultural anthropology and participatory media projects Watson‘s work has taken him across the America’s hunting for new pathways of building creative communities for social good.    After conducting a year’s worth of ethnographic research on how hip hop was being used as a tool for violence prevention in urban Honduras, Watson founded Ojo Joven (“Youth Eye”), an organization aimed at building more resilient community narratives, from the perspective of marginalized youth.
