Youth & Media: Exploring media making & positive youth development

Welcome to YouthLearn's Youth & Media section!


Welcome to the new Youth & Media section of the YouthLearn website! Here you'll find information on how media making supports youth development, and how youth media organizations and practitioners are promoting media literacy, community engagement, and 21st century learning. Much of what you will find relates to what we're learning about the valuable outcomes that result from youth media experiences. In the coming year, we'll be adding more information on how educators can apply the practices of youth media to advance their work both in and out of school.
