Berlin European Media Literacy Conference IV: Media and Social Intervention

Date:
November 11 - 12, 2005

Location:
Offener Kanal Berlin, Voltastr. 5, D-13355 Berlin

 

General aim

An increasing number of media initiatives across Europe show a wide range of different content, contexts, audience groups and local media output. This Media Literacy Conference invites people from these initiatives to develop a better expertise in the approach and results of their media work and to deepen democratic and direct media impetus in Europe. The topic of “Media and Social Intervention” focuses on methods and examples which helped people to develop their own critical voice through the use of independent media.

The Media Literacy Conference IV would like to continue the dialogue which was started three years ago. Project presentations, workshops and open discussions will contribute to develop our coalition of European partners supporting media literacy within the wider framework of the new organisation “Open Channels for Europe!”.
