Participatory Academy – the firth European workshop on children, youth & crossmedia

The digital era has changed the rules on the global media market. Nowadays the traditional broadcasters, film companies and other creators of content are challenged by a new competitor – the audience itself. Helped by inexpensive home computers and an increasingly faster Internet thousands of new producers have made their voices heard publicly just the last year. This can be seen as a threat to the traditional industry or as a vitalization of the whole society. We take the positive stance and look forward to an exciting future where the professional media industry will work in symbiosis with the young bloggers, v-loggers and gamers.

We therefore established the Participatory Academy – a new forum for all media professionals and researchers engaged in collaborative methods and techniques. Participatory Academy will be held in Växjö, Sweden 22-24th of September 2006.

European meeting point
The last three years the Interactive Institute and Swedish Television, in cooperation with Växjö University, Danish Broadcasting Corporation, Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation, Prix Europa and EBU have invited practitioners and researchers to a creative weekend in Växjö on cross media. Approximately 100 people from the whole of Europe have participated each year – attending lectures, contributing with their ideas in working sessions, exchanging experiences and having a good time while building a professional network for the future.

Do you work with young audience in TV, radio or new media and do you want to learn the secrets of successful co-participatory work? Then you should attend the Participatory Academy held in Växjö, Sweden the 22-24th of September 2006.

Welcome!
