Lively discussions, hard work and a joint vision on the role of young people in the media marked the three days of the Shabab Live kick off-event in Tunis

During the launch event, around fifty members of the 18 selected Shabab Live projects gathered in Tunis to discuss about their passion for media, challenges of young people in the region as well as project and financial management details. The participants came from Morocco, Tunisia, and Algeria, Lebanon, Palestine, and Jordan to meet for the first time in person and discover each other’s approach to strengthen youth participation in the media.

During three intense days, the Shabab Live community discussed the upcoming project phase in which the selected projects will be implemented with the partners’ staff, finetuned last project details, and discussed and developed a common understanding of the overall project.

The kick off workshop also provided an occasion for the project teams to get to know the Shabab Live partner organizations as well as the other exciting projects from six different countries.

Participants also explored possibilities for collaboration, synergies and exchange between broadcasters and NGOs of the Shabab Live projects in their home country to strengthen the voice of young people in the media.
