Venue:
Birkbeck Clore Management Centre
We’re thrilled to announce that 2022’s week-long celebration of progressive media voices will go ahead with a number of international online events from Monday 21st - 25th March, followed by an in-person event on Saturday 26th March at Birkbeck, University of London.
The festival will consist of action and analysis on the media with regards to the climate emergency, activism, digital rights and privacy, anti-racism, worker power, and more. Our panels, workshops, seminars and Q&As are led by a range of contributors including activists, journalists, trade unionists and expert academics, who will outline why our current media system is not fit for purpose and how we can transform it to meet our needs this decade.
Confirm speakers so far include John McDonnell MP, Helen Jay (former Channel 4 Head of Policy) and Senator Hanson-Young (Chair of the Senate Inquiry into Media Diversity in Australia).
