JERAA CONFERENCE DEADLINE EXTENDED TO AUGUST 1, 2022

Due to popular request, the Journalism Education and Research 
Association of Australia is extending its call for submissions for its 
annual conference, which will be hosted by Edith Cowan University and 
Curtin University, and held at the Pan Pacific Hotel December 6-8, with 
a postgraduate ECR pre-conference on December 5 (venue for the 
pre-conference to be announced).

The new submission deadline for paper abstracts and panel proposals is 
August 1.

Theme: Journalism in Post-Normal Times

The past two years have brought extraordinary challenges that have 
destabilised practices, institutions, and structures around the 
world—and journalism has been there to document, communicate and make 
sense of these challenges. Journalism and journalism education have been 
pushed to consider social, political, and even psychological extremes in 
new and complex ways that continue to provoke changes in our pedagogy 
and our industry. In this conference, we consider the role and reality 
of journalism and journalism education in these post-normal times as we 
take stock of where we have been, where we are now and how we can best 
prepare for the future. We invite conversations that consider the 
importance of journalism in the age of misinformation and 
disinformation, and strategies to meet these challenges for 
practitioners and educators alike.

We especially invite conversations that consider the importance of 
journalism in the age of misinformation and disinformation, and 
strategies to meet these challenges for practitioners and educators alike.
