A DIGITAL LITERACIES SYMPOSIUM
WHAT: The Digital Literacies Symposium is a week-long series of keynote talks and workshops designed
for youth media producers and peer-to-peer production mentors who help other youth to create new media. The
symposium will consider how ideas of citizenship and social justice can be explored throughout the digital media
production process. Beyond inspirational and critically engaging keynote talks by noted local and international writers,
educators and activists, the symposium will provide participants with resources, ideas and networks to help further the
way issues of social justice and citizenship are taken up when youth produce videos, craft web spaces, or develop new
mobile media projects.
