Context

Nowadays, digital skills are essential in almost all fields. The difference between today and ten years ago is the raise of social technologies that made possible innovative forms, such as self-branding.

The issue is that youth represents a quarter of the world’s workforce, but they also represent half of the unemployment population around the world.

MEDIA CREATOR project is developing practical and innovative digital skills that employers and clients (in case of entrepreneurial path) are looking after, involving youth directly as media creators.

Overall Focus

use media tools to express yourself, increase employability or explore your entrepreneurial path;

self-brand through offline and online media, such as Facebook, Linkedin, blogs, websites, articles, photos, videos, creative CVs;

create media by yourselves – using photo, video, creative designs, social media, blogging; promote your unique personal values and qualities on the labour market;

increase intercultural competences to communicate effectively your message with people from other cultures; develop communication, team work, leadership skills and get equipped with tools for self-development.

Who Should Attend

The background of participants is youth (18-30 years old + 1 leader with unlimited age) that are unemployed and are willing to self-develop in order to be hired or pursue an entrepreneurial path or that are still under construction of their personal branding and identity.
