Kid Witness News (KWN) Global Summit 2023 Officially Announced: Calling for Participants to Vote and Select the Best Productions!

KWN is part of Panasonic's next-generation development support activities, in which Panasonic lends its professional video equipment to support filmmaking by children. Through filmmaking, the children work to enhance their creativity and communication skills and foster teamwork. Over the 34 years since the program began in the United States in 1989, it has had a cumulative total of more than 180,000 participants, including teachers. With these productions, created with themes like communication and the SDGs, this program has been delivering messages from children's perspectives to help solve problems.

For many years, the KWN Global Contest represented an annual gathering for KWN contest winners in each country and region. In recent years, the KWN Global Summit has taken shape as a unified opportunity to learn about different cultures and deepen exchanges and to think together about global social issues and deepen understanding. This year's event will be the fourth time the KWN Global Summit has been held.

The productions submitted from each country to the KWN Global Summit 2023, as well as other detailed information, can be found at the websites linked below.
