Annenberg-Oxford Media Policy Summer Institute 2014 Application Released



The Center for Global Communication Studies at the Annenberg School for 
Communication, University of Pennsylvania and the Programme for 
Comparative Media Law and Policy at the University of Oxford (PCMLP) are 
pleased to invite applications to the 16th annual Annenberg-Oxford Media 
Policy Summer Institute, to be held from Monday, June 30 to Friday, July 
11, 2014 at the University of Oxford.



For the past sixteen years, the Annenberg- Oxford Media Policy Summer 
Institute has brought together young scholars, media lawyers, 
practitioners, regulators, and activists for two weeks to discuss 
important recent trends in technology and international politics and the 
influence that these developments have on global media policy. The 
objective of the program is to help prepare, motivate, encourage and 
support students and practitioners who aspire to pursue a career in 
communications media, may it be in academia, business or in 
policy-related fields. Participants come from around the world; 
countries represented at previous summer institutes include Myanmar, 
Bosnia and Herzegovina, Iran, Kenya, China, Brazil, Egypt, Nigeria, 
Jordan, Italy, Iran, Colombia, El Salvador, among others. 
Annenberg-Oxford alumni continue to engage in the program and 
collaborate through network ties that are furthered throughout the 
years. To learn more about past participants, speakers, and curricula,

Applications are welcomed from students and practitioners working in 
communications, media, law, policy, regulation, and technology. We are 
especially interested in applicants with specific research projects 
focusing on issues surrounding global internet policy and politics, 
media and peace-building, freedom of expression, and media development.



For questions, please email Laura Schwartz- Henderson at 
(lsh /at/ asc.upenn.edu). Limited funding is available for a select number of 
participants, although applicants are encouraged to seek alternative 
funding sources.
