Bright Stars
Media Club

One of our main objectives at the Bethlehem Media Center is to empower youth to become future leaders through giving them the means to express themselves publicly on issues of concern to them.

In cooperation with Radio Bethlehem 2000, 8 young students are having the opportunity to create 2 programs to be broadcast on local radio delivering young people’s views on various topics and issues, after participating in a course that equips them with the necessary skills for these programs. Giving a voice to these voiceless will promote their strengths and potentials, raise their self-esteem, and make them proactive in their own community.

The course which consists of 8 workshops includes training in the following:

1- The definition of media
2- Types of programs
3- Information gathering, selection and research
4- Interview and presentation techniques
5- Structure items and programs
6- The role of the producer, the editor and the reporter/presenter
7- Team management
8- Issues of morality, conscience, and responsibility

We are now in our 5th session and so far we are able to distinguish 4 students who showed immense interest and capability in media and could easily be identified as young journalists.
