Hello EM lovers,

We just got back from 3 full days of workshops with a dozen young people in Balikpapan, East Kalimantan, Indonesia.

Over several hours each day, we were conducting follow-up training sessions for about 10 to 13 participants. Using many fun methods, we plan to develop five interesting stories that would strongly relate to youth issues and young people in Balikpapan.

For this particular workshop, we also brought over a mentor, Zulhiczar from Jogjakarta, who’ll stay there till early June to help our young participants to develop their stories and produce videos to ensure that they become storytellers within their own communities.

We were also collaborating with the participants to develop strategies for realistic outreach and video distribution. So stay tuned and look out for more updates from this interesting project!

Cheers
