About NewsAction

The Student News Action Network (NewsAction) is a collaborative, online news service where student journalists from around the world:

• report upon issues of local and global significance such as poverty, the environment, human rights, and politics, and
• highlight actions and solutions that address such issues.

Contributors bring their unique voices to the discussion, representing their regions and their cultural histories in an effort to make a positive impact on their communities and the world.

While adult mentors provide guidance and editorial expertise, students are encouraged to take ownership of the site by setting priorities and directing editorial content. To enhance digital storytelling, contributors are encouraged to use the full range of online and multimedia tools, including video, podcasting, photography, and graphic design.

Membership is open to secondary-aged students worldwide who agree to the Terms and Conditions. Join now!
