Radioactive Multicultural & Indigenous Youth Media Conference is for young people from all backgrounds to engage in community media and become informed about media career pathways. Get along to this two day event from August 14 – 15 in Canberra for your chance to learn from industry heavyweights like Faustina ‘Fuzzy’ Agolley, Auskar Surbakt and Paul Bongiorno as well as other young broadcasters about what it means to be a media maker.

Whether you want to build connections within the media community or just find out about training and internship opportunities, Radioactive is your chance to get connected and get your voice heard!

At the conference you’ll have the opportunity to take part in information sessions, workshops and presentations that explore the importance of youth participation and representation in the media as well as themes of language, intercultural dialogue, heritage and identity.

Members of the Vibewire crew who are also taking advantage of this fantastic opportunity will be out in force, building up our own community connections and letting young media makers know about a variety of writing, film and media opportunities. But we want to see our contributors there too. You don’t even need to have experience in media, just show up and see how you can get involved!

Put together by The National Ethnic and Multicultural Broadcasters’ Council (NEMBC), the Australian Indigenous Communications Association (AICA) and 1CMS, Canberra’s multicultural community radio station, Radioactive is an opportunity not to be missed.
