News Amplifying Young Activists’ Voices with Amnesty International UK
MIC media partners with the Amnesty International UK’s Youth Collective to equip young activists with the skills to launch their own podcast, amplifying their voices and advocating for human rights.
MIC recently had the absolute pleasure to work with Amnesty International’s UK Youth Collective to provide comprehensive podcast training for the group. The training equipped these brilliant young activists with the skills and knowledge needed to launch and maintain their own podcasts, amplify their voices and drive positive change.
Empowering young activists through podcasting
Podcasting is a powerful tool for storytelling, advocacy, and community building. We know through our work that podcasting is a powerful tool to help people and organisations reach new and far-reaching audiences, share important messages, and inspire action. Recognising the potential of podcasting for social impact, MIC media is committed to supporting good eggs from everywhere to exploit the incredible power of podcasts.
Training Highlights
The training sessions delivered by MIC provided The Collective with a solid foundation in podcasting, covering a range of essential topics including podcast fundamentals, pre-production and planning, recording, post-production and distribution and marketing.
Grace Farmer, Senior Community Organiser at Amnesty International UK Youth Collective, expressed her enthusiasm for the podcast training,
“MIC’s training is the perfect starting point for anyone who is keen to launch a podcast but doesn’t know where to begin. Amnesty International UK’s Youth Collective are now equipped with a structure to take them through the steps needed for launching their podcast. MIC’s training provided guidance on all things from equipment needed, to editing episodes and marketing – we highly recommended it!”
Vic Elizabeth Turnbull, Founder and CEO of MIC media adds,
“MIC believes that everyone has a story to tell, and podcasting provides a platform for individuals to share their voices and make a difference. We’re thrilled to have had the opportunity to work with the Amnesty International UK Youth Collective to equip them with the tools they need to launch their own podcasts and amplify important causes. By providing them with the necessary training and support, we hope to inspire a new generation of podcasters who will use their voices to drive positive change.”
The Amnesty International UK Youth Collective is now fully equipped with the knowledge and skills to launch their own podcast series. They aim to share stories of human rights, and inspire action among their listeners.
As the Youth Collective prepares to launch their own podcast series, we’re so excited to hear the important contributions they’ll make to the world of podcasting and activism!
