00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.275
Action Médias Jeunes is
a youth media education organisation

2
00:00:04.275 --> 00:00:07.607
whose aim is to make young people critical,
curious, open-minded,

3
00:00:07.607 --> 00:00:10.040
responsible and independent
with respect to their media use,

4
00:00:10.040 --> 00:00:12.720
in terms both of their media consumption and,

5
00:00:12.720 --> 00:00:14.680
particularly, their media production.

6
00:00:14.680 --> 00:00:17.320
So, every day a team of ten leaders

7
00:00:17.320 --> 00:00:20.000
are out and about in the
Wallonia Brussels Federation,

8
00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:22.473
going to meet young people in schools,

9
00:00:22.473 --> 00:00:25.480
at youth clubs and youth centres,
through youth welfare organisations

10
00:00:25.480 --> 00:00:28.160
or even young people who are
simply passionate about the media

11
00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:29.480
and want to do projects with us.

12
00:00:29.760 --> 00:00:32.520
So the aim is to be analytical

13
00:00:32.520 --> 00:00:34.880
and to think a little bit about what they do

14
00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:38.080
but also and above all to create
and produce media works,

15
00:00:38.080 --> 00:00:41.400
both from a broadcasting point of view,
producing sound,

16
00:00:41.400 --> 00:00:43.720
video and photographic works,

17
00:00:43.720 --> 00:00:47.408
and from a multimedia, Internet and
mobile devices point of view,

18
00:00:47.408 --> 00:00:49.596
of course not forgetting video games,

19
00:00:49.596 --> 00:00:52.000
which are very important to us now.

20
00:00:52.360 --> 00:00:54.960
So, we routinely hold workshops,

21
00:00:54.960 --> 00:00:58.520
run activities and organize adult training.

22
00:00:58.520 --> 00:01:01.280
We also produce educational tools

23
00:01:01.280 --> 00:01:03.720
to try to help those supervising young people

24
00:01:03.720 --> 00:01:07.720
to encourage those young people to really
develop a positive and critical approach

25
00:01:07.720 --> 00:01:12.200
approach to equip them on a day-to-day basis
to effectively handle

26
00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:15.120
the media landscape in which they operate.
