Each of these early evening discussions will take place at a different venue with a different line-up of speakers discussing a different media-related topic.

There will be something for everyone!

“Media Freedom Week is in part to commemorate Black Wednesday [19 October], but also to showcase some of the great work that the media and civil society are doing to contribute to and improve the sector more broadly. Inasmuch as we want to celebrate and commemorate what’s happened in the media this year, we also hope that each event will highlight the good things that are taking place.” - William Bird, Director of MMA

They will each take place at 17h30 for 18h00 until 19h30 followed by light refreshments.
