*Call for proposals to host ECREA European Media and Communication

Dear ECREA members,
we are pleased to announce the opening of a call for host institution
for the 2021 and 2022 edition of the European Media and Communication
Doctoral Summer School.
ECREA European Media and Communication Doctoral Summer School is
established to support integration of PhD students within Europe and
beyond into an academic culture in constructive and supportive manner,
respectful towards disciplinary differences, inclusive across different
aspects of media and communication fields and methodologies. They are
intended to facilitate network-building that will last across academic
career paths and to promote inclusive intellectual and organisational
culture that ECREA stands for.
General conditions
* The host institution must be a university, HE institution or other
suitable organisation working in the field of communication research
and education and have sufficient experience in organising academic
events and sufficient capacity (staff and support) to prepare and
run the event.
* The host institution must be ECREA institutional member.
* The Summer School must have broadly speaking a European location,
though potential host institutions are by no means limited to those
from EU-member states. The location should be affordable and
accessible.
The host institution will be selected to organise the 2021 and 2022
editions of the Summer School with an option to extend the collaboration
for an additional year.
