UK News Media: A Critical Part Of Our National Infrastructure

In collaboration with News Media Association's Journalism Matters campaign, we are delighted to invite you to the launch of a new report exploring the UK news media sector’s role as a critical part of our national infrastructure.

Written by Professor Mel Bunce, director of the Centre for Journalism and Democracy at City St George’s, University of London, the new report is a UK-focused follow up to Professor Bunce’s report for UNESCO, IFPIM and DW Akademie which found that journalism delivers a raft of benefits to societies, including economic growth, strengthened national security, and greater resilience against disinformation and crises.

The launch event will consist of a presentation of the findings followed by a panel session and reception.

Please register by the 20th November where possible. Note, the booking link will take you to an external site with registration managed by the News Media Association.
