Survival is not negotiable: calling the young & media savvy

** Applications close on September 11th, 2009 **

Do you want to report on the most compelling stories of the climate crisis?

Are you a photographer who wants to do your bit to save the planet?

Or maybe you are a videographer keen to publish your work on 17 blogs in 15 languages?

Project Survival Media is calling all passionate young people (15 to 30 years of age) who want to use their skills to:

• become an Australian/Pacific team member for an ever-increasing global movement;
• launch ‘Survival’ to the forefront of the international political debate;
• amplify voices underrepresented by traditional media; and,
• report on the most compelling climate stories from around the world.

Project Survival Media is a global youth journalism network that aims to influence the outcome of the COP 15 by broadcasting the most critical message of our time: Survival is Not Negotiable.

The network consists of seven media teams, one for each continent. They build stories together that focus on those roles in society most impacted by climate change: factory workers, farmers, mothers, organizers, and health care providers.

Eligibility // any person from 15 to 30 years of age who :

• has some experience in any of the following: blogging, reporting, photography, or videography
• has either a background in climate change, human rights issues, or global or local environmental justice struggles
• lives anywhere on one of the seven continents (in case you’re wondering – Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Antarctica, Europe, and Australia).
