About Brainstorming

We created an electronic and multimedia publication where young people can participate by freely expressing ideas and analyzing the issues concerning their countries. Young journalists and Ngo’s for many countries have the opportunity to express their opinions, and to analyze the main social problems that are affecting their countries and lives.

The project is using different materials such as documentaries, video, photo, articles and reports to spread knowledge about the situation concerning social issues in different countries encouraging young people to participate actively in generating changes in international level and in the creation of communicative links between communities.

The novelty of the project is that the magazine is a free medium where young people from many countries and backgrounds have the opportunity to express themselves in diverse ways, and also is a great opportunity to develop their professional skills, being part of a networking media.

The magazine is encouraging creativity, constructive opinion, citizenship, democratic values and freedom of speech. All these values, skills and freedoms are extremely important to the personal development of all individuals.

Mission

“BRAINSTORMING - An Investigative International View” is an electronic and multimedia publication where young people are freely expressing ideas and analyzing the social issues concerning their countries. Young journalists and Ngo's for different continents are investigating and analyzing the main social problems that are affecting their countries and lives.

In a very short period of time the global situation have suffered several changes. One common way of life and some experiences that have as a result new realities and open borders; all this has been accomplished, but at the same time it is necessary to build stronger unity between countries and societies.

The feeling of belonging to a common space needs to be made possible, to be close to other countries, to know about one another and understand the differences. It will be beneficial to find new ways of expression for young people who are curious and want to know about different topics concerning other countries. This project is only one more step to get to this objective.
