Generation What

Generation What is an interactive programme funded by the European Union, produced by Upian, and Yami 2, in partnership with the EBU, ASBU and COPEAM, as well as 8 Mediterranean broadcasters. In essence, it is an evolution of Generation What, a large-scale survey conducted in France in 2013 and in 19 European countries in 2016 to draw the portrait of the current generation of 15-34 year olds. This time, 8 countries have joined us for the purpose of making this program a truly Arab world event: Algeria, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Palestine and Tunisia.

The programme is broken down into three parts:

• A comprehensive online questionnaire, available in participating countries and designed with the help of sociologists. The purpose of this questionnaire is to probe this generation's ambitions, hopes, and fears.
• A documentary and statistical portrait of Lebanese youth, consisting of their testimonies and enhanced in real time by the data collected via the questionnaire.
• A documentary and statistical portrait of the Arab youth, consisting of intersecting testimonies from the youth of all participating countries and enhanced in real time by the data collected via the questionnaire, as well as a map infographic for comparing answers by country on a worldwide scale.
