Faces of Courage: Transforming a Post-Pandemic World
International Youth Media Summit in partnership with Kultur i Halland – Film / Region Halland is thrilled to announce the 17th edition of our main event – our first physical once since the COVID-19 pandemic!
Young filmmakers and social activists will gather in Falkenberg, Sweden for the 17th annual IYMS. After our two online editions from Croatia, we are still in Europe – returning back to Sweden, where we will continue to build bridges across cultures fuelled by the power of media.
IYMS 2022 is expected to gather more than 70 delegates including young filmmakers and media enthusiasts from all over the world. At the end of the Summit, the young delegates from more than 20 different countries will screen their short films about the 7 major global issues.
Below is a list of delegates who have been invited to participate in the 17th IYMS event in Sweden. Congratulations! We will be sending out official email with confirmations on Monday, April 18th. We will also be expecting your reply in the following 7 days in order to hold your spot on this list.
We appreciate the effort and time everyone has taken to share their story with us through their application. All of the submissions we received were compelling, which made it very difficult for us to decide on our first list of invited delegates. We had many factors to consider when making final selections – not the least of which was balancing world-wide participation.
After an in-depth scoring and evaluation process, we have assigned some applicants to the Waiting List. So for all other delegates – we have great faith in you and would love to stay connected regarding your potential participation in case any spots become available at a later time. Expect to receive emails as well on Monday, April 18th.
