What is the Youth Advisory Panel?

As much as we claim to be the teen experts, we are not the type to rest on our laurels. We also like to get information straight from the teens themselves. That's why we initiated the Youth Advisory Panel.

The KenyanTeen Youth Advisory Panel is a team of dedicated youth, aged between 14 - 19 who go to the field, collect information about general youth culture, and write comments, features or stories about their day-to-day experiences. These experiences are based on how they interact with the 5 key pillars of Youth Culture (Music, Entertainment, Technology, Sports & Fashion). The Youth Advisory Panel members are selected from the resource of 800 teens across the country who are used to create the Trend Report.

 

 

Chat With The Panel Every Month

KenyanTeen gives you the unique opportunity to chat with our team of teen panelists on a monthly basis. Every third Saturday of the month, between 10am and 2pm, you will be able to ask our panel questions about the youth market. This opportunity however, only allows for one question per organization/advertising agency. Take advantage of our Panel and engage them in lively, live debate.



What is the value of your social currency amongst Kenyan teens?

    • Before we can start talking about social currency we have to discuss what exactly is. A currency is the prevalent item or unit that can be taken universally by anybody in a given economy for goods or services, in that same economy. That is an acceptable definition but first to apply it here we must agree that we have a social economy, meaning that we have a structure where, things of value are being exchanged, whether for personal use or for business. So. for example, I could give you my trust. Until I give that trust to you, even in a limited capacity, I won’t give your business my email address unless I’m a fool, or I fully trust the laws that protect me if you abuse it. In return for my trust, I have to get something back that is worth not just the risk of getting burned by you or a third party that hacks your server, but the act of opening a line of communication itself. Another definition of currency is any form of value exchange that can be circulated within an agreed economy. In order for one to get another unit of value back, I offer a unit of value. Of course, in a value exchange it’s all about the perception of value. Money itself isn’t static. Even though were not on the gold standard anymore we do have comparisons between different countries and economies as far as what a certain currency’s value is here. The value of the dollar against other world currencies is different than it was ten days ago, ten years ago even, and not the same as it will be in ten years. The recent fall in value of the Kenya Shilling against the US Dollar is a stark reminder of this....commentsread more
