*Theme: Journalism in Post-Normal Times*

The past two years have brought extraordinary challenges that have 
destabilised practices, institutions, and structures around the 
world—and journalism has been there to document, communicate and make 
sense of these challenges. Journalism and journalism education have been 
pushed to consider social, political, and even psychological extremes in 
new and complex ways that continue to provoke changes in our pedagogy 
and our industry. In this conference, we consider the role and reality 
of journalism and journalism education in these post-normal times as we 
take stock of where we have been, where we are now and how we can best 
prepare for the future. We invite conversations that consider the 
importance of journalism in the age of misinformation and 
disinformation, and strategies to meet these challenges for 
practitioners and educators alike.

Please be advised: The editors of Australian Journalism Review will be 
inviting a selection of the best conference papers to be considered for 
publication in a special conference issue.

We especially invite conversations that consider the importance of 
journalism in the age of misinformation and disinformation, and 
strategies to meet these challenges for practitioners and educators alike.

We are now calling for abstracts for papers and panel proposals that 
address the following themes of the conference:

  * Diversity in news and journalism
  * News and media literacy
  * Teaching and reporting on climate change/ climate action
  * Constructive journalism
  * Press Freedom
  * Ethical and legal issues in journalism and journalism education
  * Best practice interviewing and reporting
  * How can journalism schools best prepare for the future?
  * What’s next after podcasting?
  * Creative ways to work with industry
  * Building resilience and adaptability in the student cohort
  * Can trust in journalism be restored?
  * Health crisis reporting
  * Journalism education during COVID-19
  * Capitol riot reporting
  * Journalism post-Trump
  * Beyond fake news
  * Artificial intelligence in reporting
  * Data journalism in the 2020s

  * Any other journalism related papers are also welcome.

title, author/s and affiliation, bio, abstract and keywords.
