Founded in 2002 in Haiti, Wozo Productions is a multimedia production partnership which for three years documented Haiti's rich and complex cultural, social and political life. The name comes from the Haitian proverb which recognizes the resilient Caribbean bamboo, wozo.

"Nou se wozo, nou pliye men nou pa kase."
"We are wozo. We bend but we do not break."

Daniel Morel and Jane Regan named their partnership after the plant because of their respect for the resiliency and restancy of the Haitian people and their culture. Like the wozo branches that survive the Caribean's hurricanes, resistance, resiliency and drive is most successful when it is collective. Thus, Wozo believes firmly in its partnership and in collective projects.

The courage and determination found in Haiti is within many people, all over the world, but it must be sought out or, in some cases, just given enough space to emerge.

Wozo Productions is now located in New Paltz, New York. Morel and Regan still seek what they sought in Haiti: to value the undervalued, to give voice to the voiceless and go to the heart of the question, working in video, photo, text and web-based media.
