*Civilmedia09:
Social and Technological Innovation in Open Access Media*
Salzburg, Nov. 5 - 7, 2009
http://civilmedia.eu
The Civilmedia 09 will be a landmark at the end of the â??European Year of
Creativity and Innovation 2009â??.
In bringing together international and national alternative media
practitioners, researchers, policy makers, activists, and community
development workers, we will review the importance of community media
and Web 2.0 in fostering social as well as technological innovation.
In which way is open access media socially innovative?
Which technological developments have been initiated in this field and
how are social and technological changes related?
Which models for future action can we develop?
*Radio and beyond*
Non-commercial community radios are among the first players in
electronic media participation. They have opened a new channel of
communication for marginalized people and groups and new forms of
cooperation among and between communities. Citizen Journalism and user
generated content at community radio/tv stations and participatory Web
2.0 tools are important â??laboratoriesâ?? for experimenting in both, social
and technological context.
*Your participation*
The UnConference provides an open space for media activists, scholars,
politicians, and the interested public. Everybody is encouraged to
participate actively. Various forms of presentations, workshops,
discussions etc. will allow a large vision on the field of participatory
media and also permit that each contributor finds his or her specific
place in the programme. Presentations of best-practice projects are welcome.
If you want to take part at the UnConference, please register on the
wiki space at http://wiki.civilmedia.eu <http://wiki.civilmedia.eu>and
propose your workshop or presentation online.
