Ørecomm Festival 2011

Invitation

Agency in the Mediatized World is the overarching theme for the first Ørecomm festival, 9–13 September 2011, a five-day event taking place on both sides of the Öresund strait. The event is organised by the transnational research centre, Ørecomm, which works to strengthen research in the interdisciplinary field of media, communication and social change.

The festival will start in Malmö with an open three-day seminar (9–11 September) in conjunction with the international master’s programme in Communication for Development at Malmö University, stopping over in Copenhagen for a professional practitioner hearing on social media in development cooperation (12 September), and ending at Roskilde University with an academic conference by the Glocal NOMAD (Network on Media and Development) on 13 September. Seminars, hearing and conference are open and there are no fees involved. However, to attend you must register by 22 August 2011. You may register here.
