86Proceedings of the 27 th MATE Annual Conference- Allow youth to BE part of the media; creating TV channels for schools,universities and different educational institutions would be equalled to noother agent if the target youth are themselves the central focus of media.Strengthening cultural identification should come form the young and futuregenerations.ConclusionIf globalisation is defined as an accelerated flow of information, for somesocieties it is a slow but increasing amalgamation of cultures for youngergenerations. Globalisation of information through the mass media has, then, ledto a “radical change” in the rate and pattern of socialisation, with youngergenerations obtaining all types of knowledge from sources that were not availableto societies in the past, and at an unprecedented rate. Adolescents today probablyknow wider and deeper concerning human relations, norms, practices, etc. thantheir parents at their age, let alone two or generations ago. One would reallywonder if the picture we all had of our grandparents, as the wise and all knowingpeople, still dwells in the minds of youth today.Strong cultural identification usually leads to a strong sense of belonging; thiscontributes to self and community pride; a citizen proud of his/her nation couldonly be a responsible one; responsibility is one of the components that pave theway to leadership.BibliographyCovell, K.
