One World Youth Jury - opportunity for young people interested in media and development

Are you aged 16-19? And interested in the media and young people’s issues around the world?

Be part of the One World Youth Jury and win a trip to London to visit TV channels and newspapers, and then choose the media that changes people’s minds

The One World Media Awards is a leading awards event in the UK. It’s open to films, radio programmes, newspaper articles and websites, and it’s there to recognise the best media coverage of the developing world. The Awards are presented in a televised ceremony each year by Jon Snow of Channel 4 News.

Right now we’re looking for four young people to judge one of the awards – the Children’s Rights Award, sponsored by Unicef. It’s for media that acknowledges the voices of young people in the developing world.

Could you be one of our young judges? We’re running a competition to find them. To enter, you have to write an article about something you’ve seen in the media.
