If you are between the ages of 15-18 from Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Denmark and interested in photojournalism and documentary photography as a future career, Chai Khana and KulBroen are offering a unique opportunity to improve your skills and develop as a photographer through a four-month mentorship programme. 

As a mentee, you will work with award-winning photographer mentors on the fundamentals of photojournalism and documentary photography, sequencing and editing, and visual storytelling.

The project, supported by the New Democracy Fund, aims to develop the skills of young photographers from Azerbaijan, Armenia, Georgia and Denmark. The program will help them work individually and in groups on assignments as well as produce and curate the photo projects for online and offline exhibitions. 

Mentors of the project are Mano Svanidze (GE) and Benjamin Nørskov (DK).

- Participants should be ready to travel to Georgia, Tbilisi in the beginning of July and to Denmark in November for one week.
