The summit took place August 2nd - Aug. 6th, 2011 at Santa Clara University and also brought together lead educators from around the world representing the core leadership of educators in the Adobe Youth Voices Network. Educators worked in teams to create short media clips to use in longer presentations on a range of topics meaningful to adult facilitators of youth media. In this clip educators share their experiences and suggestions for working with young people with unique challenges and offer suggestions.
