- Summary:
- This collection of 19 essays presents research and analysis on youth media from around the world. Youth media is, quite simply, media or media-products made by young people. The international perspective is represented in the first three major sections that focus on regional analyses of youth programs in places like Brazil, Singapore, the USA and the Middle East, their problems and needs; case studies of youth media performers; and cross-cultural comparisons and collaborations between youth media-projects. The final major section offers several chapters with detailed suggestions about implementing and otherwise engaging youth media projects. To that end, the essays are written with educators and youth activists in mind. The contributors are mostly academics working in communication, media- and cultural-studies, and education, as well as high school teachers, and people working within or in alliance with youth media projects.
