International Conference



Public service media in the digital mediascapes



Warsaw, June 19-20, 2015



CALL FOR PAPERS



http://www.konferencjemedioznawcze.pl/en/




The development of online platforms together with changes in users’ behavior (social media, blogs, collaborative media making) call traditional media organizations (including radio and TV) to adapt to the digital mediascapes. All of this is of critical importance for public service media (PSM), which has been tasked to serve the societal and cultural needs of a given nation and to promote democracy and participation within the geographical boundaries.



The goal of the conference is to highlight and evidence the development scenario for public service media in the era of convergence and digitalisation. The meeting aims at redefining the model of contemporary PSMs in the context of both external (media regulation, public service remit, relations with the publics) and internal challenges (structures, funding, organisational culture, innovation and new technologies). All of this when taking part in the discussions with representatives from governmental bodies, regulatory authority (The National Broadcasting Council), international organisations (European Broadcasting Union, The Council of Europe) as well as leaders and managers of public media in Poland (Polskie Radio – PR, Telewizja Polska – TVP).



Among the salient questions to be addressed are: What is the current state of discussions on public service media going forward? What are the good practices for PSM adaptation to the digital ecosystems? What recommendations could be addressed to policy makers and PSM leaders and managers in order to assist the evolution towards the network paradigm?

Dr. Robert Suarez Candel – Director, Media Intelligence Service, European Broadcasting Union

Prof. Lizzie Jackson – Ravensbourne, UK

Dr. Bissera Zankova – Bureau of the Steering Committee on the Media and Information Society (CDMSI) at the Council of Europe
