[Commlist] Monitoring Mediascapes for Democratic Communication in Europe Conference

‘Monitoring Mediascapes for Democratic Communication in Europe’, in 
Brussels on 15 February 2024. *
*
*

With the conference we are marking the end**of**the 3-year project 
Mediadelcom <https://www.mediadelcom.eu/> - the most comprehensive study 
of its kind done in Europe identifying the risks and opportunities for 
deliberative communication in today's polarized Europe.

*Mediadelcom,* financed by Horizon 2020 and coordinated by the 
University of Tartu, Estonia, has been examining various aspects of the 
media in 14 European countries to determine the risks and opportunities 
for deliberative communication. Mediadelcom argues that European 
political and cultural spaces evolve best if specific policies enhance 
the conditions for deliberative communication. The project has developed 
a methodology to detect the risks and opportunities that determine the 
news media’s ability to provide necessary information, as well as 
influence the electorate’s engagement in deliberative communication. The 
findings highlight areas of concern for media practitioners, policy 
makers and the public. Mediadelcom provides valuable information in the 
context of implementing EU media-targeted regulations, including the 
European Media Freedom Act. The results also tackle some of the major 
challenges facing the media, such as accountability, access to 
information, literacy, polarization. Mediadelcom involves 17 teams 
representing 14 EU countries, from Western as well as Central and 
Eastern Europe.

The event includes project findings and recommendations as well as a 
roundtable and panel discussions.
