FINISHED
The Project – ENABLED MEDIA – intends to contribute to the acknowledgment of the importance of Media in the life and education of disabled young people.
The young people will have the opportunity to put their knowledge to the test in a real life situation by creating Enabled Media and all of the associated activities for the first ever European Karate Championship for Disabled People.
Two youth exchanges of 13 disabled young people and 11 non-disabled young people will be organized involving different fields of the Media, including written, broadcast, video and online media. The first youth exchange will take place in Oxford carrying out tasks in written Media; the second in Houthalen, Belgium carrying out broadcast, video and online media tasks. They are expected to make the programme guide, posters and advertising, the entrance ticket as written media; video shooting and editing as broadcast, coordinating the online media such as youtube, Pintrest, Twitter and Facebook, and by making a webpage as online media of the event. All of these activities will be supported and assisted by professional help.
This project will raise the collective awareness of the potential of the different fields of Media and their effect on the lives of disabled people.
At the moment, the enabled communications and enabled media provided for disabled people are very limited and have a lot of shortcomings. This project is intended to open new frontiers in both the field of enabled communications and disability sport, providing information for disabled people which has been designed by disabled people themselves.
