Conference 2019
Why journalism matters
The annual JEANZ conference will this year be held at the New Zealand Broadcasting School in Christchurch on December 2-3.
The theme for the conference is Why journalism matters. The news media’s role in keeping people informed has taken a hammering in recent years, with declining profits, job cuts and fake news. This upheaval has had an adverse effect on journalism training, with falling roll numbers leading to the cancellation of some courses.
In the midst of this, new models of journalism and ways of telling stories continue to emerge. JEANZ 2019 will explore the future of news and how to change the negative narrative about the industry.
We are now calling for abstracts and papers from anyone interested in presenting research at the conference. We invite you to submit short abstracts (200 words), or a completed research paper (6000 words), by 25 October to jeanz@ara.ac.nz.
In addition to papers relating directly to this conference theme, we welcome submissions for papers on a wide range of topics including journalism and social media, funding journalism, commodification of the news, teaching journalism, podcasting, video journalism, data journalism.
