Youth Media Exchange is a collaborative project created by TakingITGlobal and Global Kids, in association with Asia Society. It is an online social network for youth interested in using digital media tools to share information on major global issues. Our vision is to create a space where youth: link to, embed, or generate the content that inspires them and discuss the global issues that are most important to them. To reflect on their abilities to create and examine media and use ymex.org and the linked resource as an inspiration and a platform for experimentation to try new tools and improve their skills. To expand their network of contacts and collaborators outside of their communities and their region of the world to have cross-cultural communication. And finally, have a blast learning, experimenting, creating, and communicating!
