Global Media Education Council (GMEC)

A global professional body of media educators and practitioners, and media institutes and departments of universities, committed to the cause of nurturing talent for the media and entertainment professional careers of their mentees.

The body contributes to the learning approaches, tools and techniques, and also in selecting the best entry-level talent in media educational institutes.

The Council shall work as a bridge among the three stakeholders: media educators (institutes), learners (trainees) and the industry (recruiters).

Anyone who is a media and entertainment teacher/educator in a college or university can be Council general member. Executive body is initially nominated, and gradually will be elected. There will be a body of mentors too. And for every major initiative, there will be a Working Committee. Edinbox.in, educational portal from India, has mooted the idea and backing it up initially, and will have two members in the Council executive body for all times. The portal and its management will have an integral role in nurturing this Council.
