Preliminary results of an EU-funded project looking at how Arabic speakers use television across Europe.


Speaker(s):
Prof Christina Slade, City University London/Universiteit Utrecht, the Netherlands (coordinator) Prof Ingrid Volkmer, University of Melbourne/Associate Professor Media & Communication, Universität Bielefeld, Germany

Dr Leonor Camauër, Associate Professor Media & Communication, Örebro Universitet, Sweden

We seek comments and discussion on an EU-funded project which investigates the ways that Arabic speakers use television across Europe. There are no reliable ratings on who is watching satellite television across Europe. Hundreds of Arabic channels are available, ranging from rebroadcast local channels (eg Moroccan), through transnational channels such as BBC Arabic and Al-Jazeera. The project began with a questionnaire followed by a diary survey and in depth focus groups. For further information please see <http://www.media-citizenship.eu/>http://www.media-citizenship.eu/

The research leading to these results has received funding from the European Community's Seventh Framework Programme FP7/2007-2013 under grant agreement n° 217480.
