Description
Media are considered the Fourth Estate of political systems. With their vast social influence, newspapers, blogs, radio stations and other outlets also serve as transmission belts between citizens and their governments. In this session, we want to look more closely at the media’s capacity to improve dialogue between different social groups and governing institutions. Join leaders from around the world who will share their experiences with the media, especially regarding their role in accessing reliable information and achieving social inclusion.
