Following on from the successful 2008 UK Youth Online* unConference, Connected Generation is bringing together practitioners, researchers, innovators and policy makers on 11th July 2009 to explore youth engagement in a digital age. Bring your own sessions! An unConference is created by the participants - and it works best when everyone comes prepared to offer a session. Your session could be a short presentation of a project you have recently worked on using digital media for youth engagement; or it could be a topic for discussion; or an issue you want to get the insights of others on. When you register you have the opportunity to suggest a session you may offer.

Target Group:
If your work involves young people, then understanding and engaging with social media and online technologies is a must. This event is an opportunity to explore big ideas, and practical realities of weaving the web into work with young people.

Programme:

As an unConference, the exact programme is created on the day by the participants, who will convene conversations, provide demonstrates and share their insights. However, themes that are likely to be explored include:

Communicating with young people online
Social networks & youth participation
How does social networking have the power to change the face of participation?
Digital inclusion for young people
Practical action - how to make sure online engagement is based on safe-and-sound foundations...
Cost: FREE
