What's Working
Dec 5-7, 2019, Prague, Czech Republic
Conference for journalists, media professionals, and scholars
PROGRAM
Tomes have been written and numerous events have been held over the past decade lamenting the plight of the media in the modern world. Much less attention has been paid to what’s actually working to challenge negative trends, especially beyond the success stories of the big, well-funded players in the United States and Western Europe. But hopeful examples do exist that are having real impact, with the possibility of adaption and replication.
The 2019 edition of Prague Media Point Conference will highlight these types of inspiring examples and more. We will offer a mix of scholarly presentations, including keynote addresses; sessions with innovators explaining their solutions; and networking opportunities to promote the exchange of know-how. As in years past, the conference will have a special regional focus on Central and Eastern Europe, though we look forward to covering cases and trends from other parts of the world.

It was particulary enriching to exchange with all these experts and colleagues on the current challenges for media in Eastern Europe and beyond. The hands-on formats of the conference made it easy to take home a lot of practical inspiration." Patrick Leusch, Head of European Affairs, Deutsche Welle
