It is a partnership between the British Council and some of the world’s leading media organizations, including Reuters, Facebook, Google, BBC and CNN. 100 young journalists from around the word will be selected to attend an intensive journalism and media program on 6th and 7th July at the Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh.
