The Powers of Rural and Urban Media Unite!

Scheduling
Session Description: 

Presenters: Malkia Cyril, Center for Media Justice; Edyael Casaperalta, Center for Rural Strategies; Joshua Breitbart, People’s Production House; more TBA

This session is an open conversation about the challenges and opportunities that urban and rural communities face. Our goal is to explore avenues of rural+urban collaboration via dialogue, imagination, and media. In one word, our goal is to UNITE! Our conversation will feature three components: 1) small group discussions about the challenges and opportunities of urban and rural, their differences and similarities, and how media contributes to amplifying challenges and creating opportunities; 2) stories of successful rural+urban collaborations from panelists and the audience; and 3) writing/live-blogging of insights and action steps that emerge from the conversation. Whether you are from a rural or urban community, or somewhere in between, come UNITE and make our efforts stronger for all.
