Conference on Migration and Media Awareness: Looking Back, Thinking Ahead – Tag 2
Past dates
10/29/21
3:00 PM
From October 28 to 30, Kampnagel will host the second edition of the CONFERENCE ON MIGRATION AND MEDIA AWARENESS (CMMA) – a forum for media professionals, journalists, politicians, decision makers, civil society activists and people with and without refugee and migration experience. After the first edition in November 2017, the focus is now once again on strengthening alliances for the rights of migrants and refugees, on solidarity in a society beyond hate, and on media presentations beyond stereotyping. With CMMA 2021, journalist, moderator and media entrepreneur Larry Moore Macaulay combines lectures, panels, debates and cultural formats with top-class experts on the theme »Looking Back, Thinking Ahead« – the focus is on topics such as inclusion, diversity and participation in the media and arts sector (community & mainstream). Analog and digital, a discursive exchange on political moods and opinions in the »(post) pandemic era« will emerge, analyzing diversity as a norm and a strength, and seismographically touching on upcoming issues in global discourses. Everybody Welcome!

Simple because the events of the last few years have made it the topic of mainstream debate.
