Training course about youth and media
For youth leaders and youth workers, from 17 NGO for youth, from 11 countries.
8-16 of March 2013

Considering the important role that media play in young people lives, media education arises today as a priority to initiate young people to be active on media communication. In this context, we organized a training for youth workers and youth leaders from 16 youth organizations from Europe, Eastern Europe and the Caucasus, for 8 days in Lefkas/ Greece. This training course allowed us to develop our working methods on non-formal education and to develop our cooperation in the field of youth and media; in order to allow youngsters to use media for their educational projects, to encourage them to produce their tools of communication, to find objectively their sources of information, and involve them to advance understanding between the cultures of partners countries and to promote the mutual respect, cultural diversity and the values of peace, solidarity and sustainable development among young people of our countries.

During the training course, participants created a pedagogical tool that can help young people from partner countries to create together their media (Web Radio, web TV, magazine…) in order to promote intercultural dialogue, solidarity and peace and to encourage cooperation among European youngsters and young people from Eastern of Europe and Caucasus.
