Hi all,
there are currently a few opportunities at Cardiff University for
people who wish to do an MA or Postdoc in topics that relate to
community, alternative, citizen, activist etc. media. The Cardiff
School of Journalism, Media and Cultural Studies (JOMEC) has a strong
interest in these areas. Students can get involved with, for example,
the JOMEC Research Group Digital Media and Society and the Centre for
Community Journalism. I copy below a couple of links and
announcements, in case anyone is interested.
Best,
Arne
