The 2020 Youth Media Education Summit will take place in
partnership with local schools.
About the theme
Media organisations are engaging in reflection about what it
means to be diverse. What does it mean to give people from different
communities an effective voice in the 21st century media? This has theoretical
and methodological implications media education: where are diversity and voice
to be located in terms of our study of producers, texts and audiences?
Responding to these questions invites interdisciplinary, self-reflexive and
practice-based research.
The organisers are particularly interested in presentations
on these topics:
- Defining, measuring, and evaluating diversity
- Performativity and pedagogy
- Inclusion, access and agency
- National and institutional policy initiatives
- Meeting diverse educational needs
- Diversity and voice in practice
Submission of abstracts and registrations are now open on
the conference site due to 02/09/2019.
