Presentation of multimedia stories: „This is (also) Europe!”
The second week of this year's International School of Multimedia Journalism will take place in Warsaw from 1 to 5 July. 20 students from Ukraine, Austria, Denmark and Georgia will meet for a week in Warsaw to produce journalistic multimedia projects on the topic „This is (also) Europe!”. The students will be supported by Ukrainian journalists as mentors for the teams.
During the group work in Vienna in February, the participants learnt how to deal with differences in journalistic work. They had to overcome both linguistic and cultural barriers. As a result, they produced five multimedia reports, each with its own unique approach to the topic:
Shaping Europe of Tomorrow – Young Voices from Georgia to Denmark
Operation Identity – Exploring Ukrainian Refugee’s Connection to their Homeland
Looking for a safe place – How refugees live after arriving in the European Union
Homeless in Europe
Echoes of Europe: Stories from the Georgian and Ukrainian Diaspora in Vienna
As a result of the Warsaw Week, four exciting journalistic stories will be presented at the Austrian Cultural Forum in Warsaw.More about the International School of Multimedia Journalism:The ISMJ was initiated after the annexation of Crimea and the start of the Russian-Ukrainian war in 2014.
