International Media Education Summit
University of Leeds, UK: April 2nd & 3rd 2020

Conference Theme: Media Education, Diversity and Voice

Each year the Media Education Summit brings together a global network of 
researchers, educators and practitioners working across all aspects of 
media education, media and digital literacy and media / technology in 
education.

The event is the leading global showcase for research, pedagogy and 
innovation on all aspects of media education.

Now running for thirteen years, MES is convened by the UK’s Centre for 
Excellence in Media Practice, in collaboration with a leading 
organisation in a different country each year. In 2020, our host is the 
School of Media and Communication at the University of Leeds.

Presenters will be also invited to submit their work to the Media 
Education Research Journal and Media Practice and Education. A panel 
will be convened by Internet Policy Review, on the theme of digital 
literacy.

The 2020 Youth Media Education Summit will take place in partnership 
with local schools.

About the theme

Media organisations are engaging in reflection about what it means to be 
diverse. What does it mean to give people from different communities an 
effective voice in the 21st century media? This has theoretical and 
methodological implications media education: where are diversity and 
voice to be located in terms of our study of producers, texts and 
audiences? Responding to these questions invites interdisciplinary, 
self-reflexive and practice-based research.

The organisers are particularly interested in presentations on these topics:

    Defining, measuring, and evaluating diversity

    Performativity and pedagogy

    Inclusion, access and agency

    National and institutional policy initiatives

    Meeting diverse educational needs

    Diversity and voice in practice
