The Adobe Foundation hosted the Adobe Youth Voices Summit 2011, “Media Beyond Borders”, a three-day immersive media event for over 60 specially selected international youth (ages 14-19) in which youth create and collaborate on media projects exploring issues such as human rights, education and community. 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.
