Through its diverse modules, it offers young people the opportunity to be creative and develop essential skills. Therefore, it is crucial that this successful project continues.
Why the Neighborhood Media Workshop Should Be Continued

Goals and Measures for the Next Project Phase
To ensure the ongoing success of the Neighborhood Media Workshop, clear goals have been set. These include further enhancing participants’ media literacy while teaching them to use digital tools responsibly.
Deepening Digital and Social Skills
One focus will be on advancing participants’ knowledge in video production, photo editing, and 3D printing. Simultaneously, they will strengthen their teamwork skills through collaborative projects.
Expanding the Ambassador Program
