The main goal of this year’s edition of the conference is for the media to become aware of their influence on the fight against global warming. The goal is for the media to develop an environmentally sustainable plan for their existence. It will be concidered the ways to reduce the emissions of negative gases produced by an average media house and how to raise awareness and call to action its readers (who will reduce their negative impact on the environment under the influence of the media), will manage that media outlets achieve environmental neutrality.

 

Through the story of the linguistic landscape in Vojvodina, we focus on the importance of minority media that, as a cultural heritage, maintain the linguistic diversity that is found in this area.
