Eurovision ACADEMY Assembly

The Assembly is the essential meeting for Training & Development leaders in Public Service Media.

Content outline

The programme is organised around the following theme:

How do Public Media remain relevant and distinctive in the digital age?

Public Media have to keep their content relevant and trustworthy in a media landscape characterised by the diversification of sources and distribution platforms, the fragmentation of audiences, the need to be mobile and instantaneous, as well as the recurrent budget cuts.

In order to face the financial and legitimacy challenge, broadcasters are exploring avenues such as:

• In-depth internal transformation through self-initiated change processes
• The use of social media platforms to build new video and audio content and increase two-way communication with their public.
• Marketing and branding efforts.
• Re-thinking the role of Public media journalists including news curation, data journalism, mobile journalism and new forms of investigative journalism.
