The 2th European conference devoted to Minority and Local Media with a main theme “Are the Minority Media cultural heritage?” will be held on 15th -17th November 2018 in Novi Sad. The Conference will be questioning the position of Minority Media and its role of active mediators in the development of European societies.
The Conference will look for answers to this question through few major themes: cultural rights, self-regulation of Minority Media and the definition of the phenomenon of Minority Media as a cultural heritage. The European character of Conference gives a possibility for insights in production and levels of influence Minority Media in European societies in which they create content.
Considering that the event is integrated into the PLUS Interculturality days of the project Novi Sad EPK 2021, we will focus on one of the operational goals foreseen for 2018, namely “Promoting Novi Sad and Vojvodina as a cultural destination using the potentials of their original multicultural environment” through the support of the active cooperation with minority media both in Serbia and throughout Europe.
