Open call for applications is announced by The International Debate Education Association to select youth from Central Asia to participate in Youth in 21st Century on the theme “Debating and Producing Media Workshop 2012”.
The media play a significant role in shaping the ideas of youth worldwide. The media can validate or ignore social or political issues in a society, cover some issues at the expense of others, and shape perceptions about particular groups or individuals. The International Debate Education Association (IDEA) organizes a series of workshops which combine debate, discussion, and analysis of the media’s role in society with hands-on training in how to create professional and insightful media projects. This event is free of charge. Air travel, accommodation and meals are provided for participants for the entire event period (19th-31th July, 2012).
Eligibility:
- We invite young people from Afghanistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan to apply.
- Applicants must be between 18-29 years old
The first two-week workshop was first organized in 2010 and since then workshops were held in South Asia, Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe, Central Asia and Sub-Sahara Africa.
Application Deadline: 22 April, 2012
