2. Shortly about the EYP
The European Youth Press (EYP) is an umbrella association of young media makers in Europe. It involves more than 60,000 journalists and other media makers, and as a network has 27 member organisations. The EYP organises numerous international projects and events and publishes online Orange Magazine. The EYP has also MENA Committee. The activities are focused on: media literacy, quality in journalism, freedom of media, no hate speech, gender in media and reporting on minorities and migration. The aim of all member organisations and of the EYP is to inspire young people to become involved in the media and take an active part in civil society by fostering objective and independent media.

3. #ddjcamp - the background
After various projects that were tackling different human rights dimensions, the EYP together with its Member Organisations has recognized a need to implement an activity for multipliers focused on providing them data journalism skills as a powerful tool for human rights storytelling. The specific objectives are as follows: 1. To improve the level of data journalism competences; 2. To increase professional journalistic capacities; 3. To reflect on migration, asylum seekers and refugees from different perspectives and raise awareness of existing biases; 4. To promote synergies between the established media and early-in-career journalists; 5. To develop participants' intercultural competences; 6. To foster innovation and excellence in the media; 7. To reflect on media responsibility; 8. To create an international network.

4. #ddjcamp - the practicalities
7 days training course, Venue: Berlin, Germany Work methods: non-formal learning (seminars, workshops, presentations, panel discussions), intercultural exchange, group work, mutual learning and exchange of experiences, hands-on learning, production of media and educational materials, informal learning Participating organisations were MO's of the EYP from the EU (8) and neighbouring countries (3) As a result, participants are able to act independetly and replicate the data-journalism techniques further in their career and to act as multipliers. The outcome of the training will be published in the national media outlets of different countries.
