Reason For The Initiative

In the wake of COVID-1​9, young people just like you feel they are no longer in control of their futures. From disrupted schooling to increased anxiety, to the challenges of finding their first job in a recession and standing up for racial justice, they are uncertain about their next steps in life.

But what if you could tell leaders what you wanted to see change, and help other young people understand and take action? That’s what the UNICEF Youth Mediathon is all about – to help young content creators like you reimagine a better world.

About UNICEF Youth Mediathon

The UNICEF Youth Mediathon is an online event that will give you the opportunity to improve your skills as a content creator, connect with other creatives, and develop content about the issues affecting young people today.

  2. Receive mentorship from experienced professionals in creative fields
  3. Have your work published on Voices of Youth and other leading content platforms

The program will hold on October 23 and 24, 2020. The two-day Mediathon will involve young creators from around the world, who will work in online groups of 4-6 to execute one project per team; be it a podcast, a video series on social media, a suite of blogs, a comic strip, or a photo essay. Then, each team will work with a mentor under one of the proposed themes;

  1. Reimagining the Future of Work and Education 
  2. Reimagining a More Sustainable World
  3. Also, reimagining the Future of Wellbeing

  2. Fluency in English or Spanish
  3. An internet connection (as all of the sessions will be conducted remotely).
