A Call to Youth Organizers - Take the National Survey on Media and Youth Organizing! May 16th, 2012

Attention youth organizers for justice! We need your help! DataCenter, in partnership with the Global Action Project, is conducting a national survey of youth organizers to better understand how media is being used to advance social justice work throughout the United States. What are the stories you're trying to tell? What's the change that you want to create? What are the things that are limiting your ability to tell your story, and what are the things that are helping?

This survey seeks your expertise on the media practices of movement organizations and youth organizers. Our goal is document how media in all its forms is being used for organizing, framing community stories, and conducting analysis. Your knowledge will help us identify trends, needs, and challenges to integrating media into advocacy and organizing efforts led by young people involved in immigrant justice, educational justice, racial justice, gender justice and other struggles. The project will capture best practices and examine how youth are integrating media in new ways. It will also identify barriers and gaps you're facing in this work. There are a few important assumptions we've made that we want to share with you.
