OTTAWA – Registration is now open for Community Media Convergence, a national professional and policy development conference for community media practitioners.
Scheduled for November 22 – 24, 2015 at Carleton University in Ottawa, the event invites practitioners from community television, radio, online and gaming platforms to join with academics and policy makers to discuss and develop new strategies for community media in the digital environment.
The conference promises to foster and celebrate Canadian community media through panels, workshops and a three-day media festival while also brainstorming a more holistic approach to policy at a day-long policy forum. The policy proposals that emerge will be presented to the CRTC as part of its upcoming review of community TV, as well as to other government agencies whose policies affect community media.
Early bird and student pricing applies until September 30th.
