Welcome to Fourth Observer
We Believe in the Power of Story to Change Futures
Youth-Led Journalism

Multiplatform Storytelling
From op-eds and interviews to podcasts and digital zines—youth publish across formats that speak to their generation.
Voice, Power, and Purpose
We help young creators develop strong voices, explore civic issues, and become informed storytellers and change agents.
Fourth Observer
Fourth Observer empowers youth to become truth-tellers in an age of misinformation.
This program teaches the foundations of journalism, media analysis, civic writing, and public communication through a lens that centers youth voice and community truth. Participants write stories, conduct interviews, and produce content that speaks to the issues that matter most to them—from local activism to global concerns.
"When you control the story, you shift the narrative—and that changes everything."
Over the course of the program, students will explore:
-
Article writing and news structure
-
Interviewing techniques and ethics
-
Digital publishing and layout
-
Evaluating media bias and sourcing
-
Creating op-eds, editorials, and audio reports
This is a platform built for youth voices—and powered by them.
Through mentorship, peer editing, and hands-on practice, students sharpen their writing, speaking, and research skills while contributing to real, publishable media. Whether creating zines, opinion pieces, or podcast segments, every participant leaves knowing how to craft a compelling, responsible narrative.
"The world doesn’t need more noise—it needs your truth, told boldly and clearly."
By the end of the program, participants will:
-
Complete a final published piece or audio story
-
Present their work at a showcase or digital platform
-
Gain tools for civic participation and critical analysis
-
Learn to identify and challenge bias in everyday media
Because when youth are equipped to report, question, and speak up—their communities become stronger, smarter, and more just.
