AsyikAsyik.com, an online media platform, and the Banjarbaru government are collaborating to organize a groundbreaking event – the Youth Journalism Academy (YJA). This event is designed to nurture the next generation of journalists and to provide young people with the opportunity to learn about journalism and hone their skills. This event is intended for teenagers aged 17 to 25 years old who have an interest in journalism, and registration is now open and will close on February 5th, 2023.

The importance of youth journalism cannot be overstated. In a world where media is constantly evolving, it is crucial to have a new generation of journalists who understand the complexities of the media landscape and are equipped to navigate it. Moreover, the perspectives of young people are vital in shaping the discourse and understanding of the world. Youth journalism provides a platform for young people to share their stories and perspectives and to bring about positive change in their communities.

AsyikAsyik.com, with its commitment to promoting responsible journalism, is an ideal partner for the Banjarbaru government in this venture. The platform has a reputation for producing high-quality journalism, and by partnering with AsyikAsyik.com, the Banjarbaru government is sending a clear message about its commitment to promoting journalism and supporting the next generation of journalists.

The YJA program is designed to be hands-on and interactive, with participants engaging in a range of activities, including workshops, lectures, and hands-on reporting and writing assignments. Participants will be given training about the world of journalism, covering topics such as how to write news, how to conduct interviews, how to analyze news, and how to make quality journalism and become responsible journalists.

One of the core objectives of YJA is to provide participants with a strong foundation in journalism. The program emphasizes the importance of ethics in journalism and teaches participants how to report responsibly and with integrity. The program also provides participants with access to a network of journalists and media professionals, who serve as mentors and provide valuable insights into the world of journalism.

The hands-on experience provided by YJA is unmatched. Participants are placed in groups and are encouraged to work together on real-world reporting assignments. This fosters a sense of community and helps participants to develop important skills such as communication, problem-solving, and leadership. It also provides participants with the opportunity to learn from one another and to share their perspectives and experiences.

The Youth Journalism Academy is a program that helps teenagers to enhance their journalism skills and also prepares them to be reliable and integrity reporters in the future. This program is also hoped to increase the quality of journalism in South Kalimantan, especially in the City of Banjarbaru.
