The 2023 Oxford Media Policy Summer Institute is open for applications!

Dramatic changes caused by much heralded AI developments, ongoing 
transformations in geopolitics, major shifts in formulations of freedom 
of expression, and the exigencies of violence, conflict, and human 
rights—all combine to make this summer’s edition of the Oxford Media 
Policy Institute exceptionally timely and engaging.

In the tradition of the Institute, now in its 20^th  year, this year’s 
edition- Technology and Policy in Turbulent Times: Whose Rights and 
Whose Responsibilities?  - brings together regulators, graduate 
students, academics, NGOs and others to discuss cutting-edge issues 
around technology law and policy globally, with a focus on governance 
and inequalities. Topics will include AI and online content moderation; 
internet shutdowns during elections and conflict; AI for social good and 
human rights; surveillance and smart cities; inequalities and 
infrastructure; and the regulation of online platforms and social media, 
particularly in the global south. With the participation of speakers 
from around the world, we will be exploring media policy in current 
events such as the continuing crisis in Ukraine, social media and 
elections in Latin America, and internet shutdowns in India.  We will 
also use our vantage point from the UK to discuss emerging issues in the 
EU and engage with local actors including Ofcom and the BBC.  As with 
institutes in the past, we will have speakers from across Oxford, as 
well as prominent guests from policy and government, and the private sector.

For over two decades the Media Policy Summer Institute has built a 
vibrant network of alumni around the world. Join us to discuss 
contemporary issues of global media policy over breakfast, during 
seminars, and on long walks through the Oxford countryside!  Please get 
in touch with us if you have any questions: (pcmlp /at/ socleg.ox.ac.uk)
