Roundtable and film screening
Regulating Media For Future Democarcies: Political and People’s Voices
The event is titled ‘Regulating Media for Future Democracies: Political and People’s Voices’. Members of the European Parliament, national parliamentarians, European Commission officials, and policy actors will discuss the intersection of media regulation and democratic governance. Building on MeDeMAP’s extensive research into European political information environments, two roundtables will explore critical questions about the future of media policy in the EU, including next steps following the EU Media Freedom Act (EMFA) and citizen perspectives drawn from the citizens’ parliaments organised by MeDeMAP in Austria, the Czech Republic, Ireland, and Slovenia.
The programme will also feature a screening of ‘AGON: Constructions of Democracy’, a thought-provoking film essay that reflects on the meaning of democracy and its contestation across cultures. The event will take place in the European Quarter (final location to be confirmed) between 9.30 am and 11:30 am.
