#iamcr — Public Fediverse posts

On 7 September 2026, the CJD working group will host the Communicating Narratives, Imaginaries and Epistemes of Hope Conference in Prague, at Charles University. I'm very much looking forward to the exchange with Ilija Tomanić Trivundža. One past ECREA and one past IAMCR president together must be fun :) #CULCORC #IKSZ #IAMCR #ECREA

The Journal of Latin American Communication Research just published an interview with me (by Fernando Oliveira Paulino - thx!), as part of a special issue on "Academic and Scientific Cooperation in Communication". The interview is here: https://journal.pubalaic.org/index.php/jlacr/article/view/272/333. The slightly less-flattering screenshot indicates that it was a fun chat, with a trip down to memory lane, including an ALAIC-ECREA Panel at the 2011 #IAMCR conference in Istanbul. #CULCORC

Last day of the FLOW34 programme, at the 2026 Galway #IAMCR conference. Congrats to MCR working group, Sandra, Aysu and Pedro, for putting this year's edition together ...

At the #IAMCR Galway conference keynote on "the communication of peace in an era of war", feeling happy that these issues are still on the agenda, and feeling sad that the current IAMCR executive board decided to discontinue the IAMCR peace fellows programme, which was a unique opportunity to stimulate peace through research and do more than talk, with respect for its remit ...

The closing plenary of this year's SJTU-IAMCR conference in Shanghai... Again, a perfect organisation by Liangwen Kuo and his team ... One of the interventions at the closing was by Xiaoling Zhang, who some years ago handled the Suzhou part of the IAMCR online/china conference. Two organisational masterminds united in one photo ... #IAMCR

There seems to have been no mention in the Australian deals about whether the funds should be invested in news as such - Benedetta Brevini, #IAMCR #AcademicMastodon #Commodon

The same dominant news companies got resources from big tech in secret deals, and not the smaller players who were most affected, says Benedetta Brevini. And since then Meta retrenched people, pulling back from news; Google will lay off 1 in 20 staff globally. All this will mean renewed problems for the Australian media. #IAMCR #AcademicMastodon #Commodon

Australia’s News Media Bargaining Code was about the asymmetry of bargaining power between news media owners and big tech in the context of an emergency. But this became a captured and privatised policy intervention and only 30 accords reached, says Benedetta Brevini #IAMCR #AcademicMastodon #Commodon

There is a difference between an advisory/consultancy model of influencing policy with limited impact, and the participatory or citizen model with representatives of sectors and groups, says Maria Soledad Segura. #IAMCR #AcademicMastodon #Commodon

Maria Soledad Segura says Latin America has long tradition of elite capture of communication policies. But activism has led to monitoring and some reforms, like in access to public information, telecoms regulation, media ombudspersons. #IAMCR #AcademicMastodon #Commodon

Media environment capture is when big tech make indispensable contributions to information and media environments without which journalism would no longer function – and this capture impacts internally and externally on media enterprises – Mandy Troger, #IAMCR #AcademicMastodon #Commodon

Natalie Fenton tells #IAMCR in Lyon about her work to develop criteria for eligibility of local news media to receive subsidies (incl from big tech grants) and network among each other - eg. public interest journalism, plurality, diversity in voices, non-discriminatory against small fragmented actors (i.e. allow collective bargaining), transparency, audited #MastodonAcademics #Commodon

@nvraemdonck @IAMCR You are right Natalie. That #IAMCR has no standardised hashtag (I counted 4 on Twitter) doesn't help. But even those still using Twitter are far from prolific.
