About the partners

Q3 is dedicated to empowering youth and communities through digital media, arts, and new technologies, fostering media competence to drive social change. We focus on inclusion, participation, and intercultural exchange, engaging with individuals from diverse and low-income backgrounds, including those with special learning needs. Through emancipatory practices, we strive to build an open, just, and cohesive society where creativity and collaboration thrive."

Media Education is an award winning socially engaged filmmaking organisation with a permanent team of skilled artists and creative facilitators. We work predominantly across Scotland.

We collaborate with people of all ages from all backgrounds and experiences - with particular emphasis on championing those with protected characteristics, mental health issues and lived experience of trauma, discrimination and adverse life circumstances who require a mentored space to develop the artistic skills to explore their identities. We work side by side as people discover their creative voice, explore issues that matter to them, find audiences for their work, become community leaders and facilitate cultural activity that creates social change.
