Welcome to Your Teen Media, the resource for parenting teenagers. We are all seventeen years old and younger, but we sure do know a lot about teenagers.
The special role of children’s radio and TV (Teen Media) should not be underestimated. AU Watch is developingin each of its chapters a ‘Young Persons Media Unit’, to convey (as anchors, correspondents and analysts) information and news about AU Watch and its activities – called AU Watch ‘Teen Media’ for children aged between 12 – 17 years of age, with audio – visual facilities.
Your Teen developed out of personal passion but grew out of universal need. Friends Afua Opuki and Fatou Kamara saw that their own parenting concerns and fears resonated with most everyone they polled. AU Watch Chapter in The Gambia approached them to see if they were willing to coordinate a Teen Media program on behalf of the organisation. Your Teen Media was born.
These days, we’re pleased to say that Your Teen is a leading source for parents seeking high-quality information and advice about teenagers in the media in Africa.
We couldn’t be prouder.
