Welcome 01SJ Adobe Global Youth Voices Participants!!!

Program Documentation:
A key component of the O1SJ Adobe Global Youth Voices program is documentation of the process of each group working with the youth in their community. The hope is that through this grant program and exhibition, more attention and excitement can be generated for those engaging youth via new and innovative artistic tools and practice. Therefore, we ask that each participating group share the individual methods they have developed for working with youth with documentation of the process and implementation of the program funded by the 01SJ Youth International Micro-Grant. As a place to house and collect the documentation of each group, a blog site is being developed. The hope is that the blog site will also act as a forum for the individuals, collaborators and organizations involved to meet, share insights and engage in open discussion regarding the issues and successes of their programming. The blog entries will serve to narrate the process of putting such programming into place, and be included in the exhibition of 01SJ Youth International in June 2008.

Documentation guidelines:
The documentation of your program is meant to be a natural extension of your program, and not a hindrance. You should post in any way that is comfortable.
Blog entries can include but are not limited to:

• links to/urls of inspirations that lead to the development of the project/program
• journal entries re: planning meetings and progress reports
• annotated photo/video documentation of the program in progress
• sound or written interviews with or entries by the participants,
• any documents used to facilitate or evaluate the program

We are open and just excited to see your progress online!

Each group must provide an initial post with the name of your name, group, organization, collective, etc., the project name, a brief discussion, the number of youth you are serving (an estimate is fine), the goals of the project, and your projected outcome (ie the medium/form the work generated by the youth will take).

1-2 posts per month, after signing the contract and beginning the project--through May.
