Mediabox is a fund which gives disadvantaged 13-19 year olds an opportunity to develop and produce creative media projects using film, television, print, radio or online platforms.
Who is it for?
For young people who want to create a media project and get the chance to express their ideas, boost their personal
development and get their voices heard.
