Ukrainian Youth Project
Youth Link Scotland and Creative Scotland
summary of project
Media Education helped young Ukrainians create short films exploring what it means to be a young Ukrainian in Scotland today. The films celebrate the different achievements and experiences of having to navigate new systems and life after moving to Edinburgh, offering advice and insights into these young people’s lives.
our approach
Working across different schools around Edinburgh, Media Education facilitated a series of creative workshops. The young Ukrainian people received training in both technical and creative aspects of filmmaking, creating a total of five short films. In addition to film screenings and discussion events, these films will form a learning resource for schools across Scotland.
