They will work together under the guidance of the IACC and Transparency International media unit to report on the conference and the conference sessions through various social media and new media channels including the IACC blog, Facebook, Twitter and Vimeo. The selected YJs will also have the opportunity to submit stories to their own news outlets, write monthly blogs/articles for the IACC website and have a chance to engage with the TI National Chapters in their respective countries.
