Dear Listers This might be of interest to our young people. Kindly ask any one interested to apply. Kind regards Grace ---------- Forwarded message --------- Dear Aisha, Grace and Eric, I trust that you are well. After having spread the idea of the DW Akademie youth pilot project during my visit in Nairobi, I hereby send you some more information. Kindly ask* 8 highly motivated young people *from your organisation to apply by sending the *motivation letter* via email as well as the *audio message on WhatsApp, *see more details in the* information sheet* attached. The youth whom you ask to apply should have a keen interest in technology, climate and communication, be open to work together with journalists and willing to learn from each other. Only then will the project be a success. Please note: This is not the invitation to a normal training; it will lead to a hackathon in January 2023 - an intensive weekend where teams create new concepts and/or products - it is a competition, and there will be an award ceremony for the best creations. For the application, kindly forward the *template and the information sheet *attached to the candidates of your organisation. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. I wish you a restful weekend.
