The session will be moderated and the speakers in turn will talk about the subject for 30 minutes. This will be followed by a discussion with the attendees online and onsite.
This workshop will deal with the learned lessons from policies followed by public service media to reach audiences via the internet, and the challenges they face particularly in reaching global audiences. The concept of "Meaningful Connectivity" will be explored in the context of what public service media can offer, whether it is via the content (e.g. multilingual and accessible, educational, fact-checking), editorial policies (child online protection), or technical solutions to blocking.
The moderator will pose questions for the attendees in the classroom and online to consider during the panellists presentations using an online tool (eg Slido). Audience members will be encouraged to comment and pose questions online throughout presentations. These will be curated by the presenter after all the panellists have spoken.
