Fellows will come together in a supported, sustained, and facilitated setting intended to engage them as experts from the field, to promote collaborative learning, and to inspire emerging leadership.
The application deadline for the Youth Media Fellowship is May 25th, 2007. Download an application here or for application instructions and more information, please contact Timothy Dorsey at 212.807.4214 or tdorsey@edc.org.

The Youth Media Learning Network (YMLN) is a pilot initiative intended to promote professional development and capacity building for the youth media field on a national scale. The central goals of YMLN are to: strengthen youth media teaching and learning practices; extend the reach of best practices from youth media work; foster communities of reflection for youth media educators; and support the development of sustainable peer learning networks across local regions.
As a pilot initiative, YMLN is a joint project of the Educational Video Center (EVC) and the Education Development Center (EDC), with support from the Open Society Institute and the W.K. Kellogg Foundation.
