As a part of the Inspire Programme series which comes under the Memorandum of Agreement (MoA) signed between the Helvetas Intercooperation gGmbH and the University of Jaffna and aligned with the ‘An Exploration of Creative Minds for Future Media’, the Second Idea Market for the Students of the University of Jaffna was conducted on 26th of June, 2022 at the Tilco Hotel, Jaffna.

Market is a place where you bargain and negotiate. The students enthusiastically participated in discussing different stories they have come up with to develop various media products for the Inter-University Competition. The mentoring of the second meeting happened for Digital Drama, Mobile Short Films and Mobile Video Storytelling.

The meeting commenced with the introductory session on Idea Market activities and competition guidelines and the session on story pitches and thematic discussions was followed.

The students presented their story ideas and pitches via art, writing, flip charts & diagrams and gathered feedback and guidance from the mentors.
