K
id Scoop News is one of 12
organizations awarded the Global
Youth & News Media Prize from the
World Association of Newspapers
(WAN).
Dr. Aralynn Abare McMane,
a Founding Director at
Global Youth & News
Media had this to say about
Kid Scoop News. "Kid Scoop
News provides an oasis of
calm for its young readers.
Bravo on your fine work!"
The prize awards media
organizations for the best work in
educating young people about the
coronavirus.
Kid Scoop News Publisher, Vicki
Whiting remembers, "I knew children
were puzzled and even frightened.
People were wearing (or not wearing)
masks. It was all very mysterious."
So, this former teacher and the Kid
Scoop News team set out to explain the
virus and how to
prevent it from
spreading. You
may remember the
pages published.
Global Youth &
News Media,
founded in 2018,
works to
strengthen engagement between news
media and young people under age 24
while reinforcing the crucial role of
journalism in
society.
