Accra, May 24, Ghanadot/GNA-The Second
Deutsche Welle Global Media Forum on conflict prevention in the
multimedia-age and opportunities and challenges posed by new
technologies and consumer habits would be held between June 3
and June 5 2009 in Bonn Germany.
The Forum would primarily highlight the rapid technological
development in the world of media and debate the ensuing
questions related to modified usage.
The conference would examine the future of content delivery,
especially for topics pertaining to peace and security.
It would find answers to a number of questions including: Do the
changes in technology and user profiles influence the way in
which the media report on conflicts - or do they directly
influence the way in which a war is fought? What about the
impact on peace-building processes and conflict prevention
strategies? What are the main challenges for the international
media during this technological revolution? How have the
expectations of viewers, listeners and users changed, and what
is the best way to reach them in the digital age?
The Forum 2009 would bring together media users and producers;
peace building and conflict prevention specialists;
representatives from the fields of media technology and
security; public relations; the military; the arms industry as
well as members of government and political parties to network
and discuss the challenges and solutions for the future.
The Supervising Chief Editor of Ghana News Agency, Mr
Boakye-Dankwa Boadi has been invited to participate.
