Youth journalism project initiated in Ukraine

Date: 12/3/09

Youth from Ukraine, Belarus and Poland are invited to participate in the "Youth Multimedia Initiative" project, which aims to share knowledge of journalism with young people to help them make a difference.

The project, under the theme "I Have a Choice. I Have Influence. I Have Media," was initiated in Ukraine on November 16.

The Web site of the project, in Ukrainian, provides youth the opportunity to create and publish their own newspapers, participate in seminars and workshops, attend lectures of reputable journalists and even to intern for media. Among future plans are summer camps and even international events for the most active participants of the project.
