[Commlist] Symposium: Participatory Media Research & Marginalised Voices

The _Centre for the Study of Conflict, Emotion and Social Justice 
<https://www.bournemouth.ac.uk/research/centres-institutes/centre-study-conflict-emotion-social-justice>_ (CESJ) 
at Bournemouth University invites you to a one-day symposium: 
“Participatory Media Research and Marginalised Voices”. Please join us 
on *Thursday 22 May 2025 *for this hybrid event, hosted at BU’s Talbot 
campus and online.

With a mix of roundtable discussion, interactive workshops, keynote, 
screenings and seminars, the symposium will focus on the ways in which 
we can use participatory media research methods to listen to, engage and 
co-create with marginalised voices and in global contexts. Seminars and 
workshops will focus on sharing ideas, good practice and building networks.

The keynote will be delivered by Pablo Martinez Zarate, 
<https://www.salzburgglobal.org/people?userID=8897> media artist, 
documentary maker and scholar, working in Mexico City. There will also 
be screenings of films and creative artefacts created using 
participatory research methods. *We welcome researchers, scholars and 
practitioners, including ECRs and PGRs to this free event.*

Please register via Eventbrite, where you will also find details of the 
full programme, before 22 May 2025:
