The National Ethnic & Multicultural Broadcasters’ Council (NEMBC) will be holding Radioactive 2007, a Multicultural Youth Broadcasters’ Forum to coincide with National Youth Week 2007. The forum will run over two days from 21 – 22 April and will be held in Melbourne.
The aim of the forum is to engage young people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds in two days of media making workshops, exploration of their role as media makers and issues of youth participation. It will focus on community radio along with new media technologies, funding and training and strategies to increase youth participation. There will be workshops to cater to existing broadcasters and non-broadcasters and a lot of space for people to mingle.
Registration is $25 for students and travel subsidies for participants from regional Victoria and interstate are available.
