Conference

I’m very excited to announce the date and location of this year’s MediaNet and Christians In Journalism joint conference.  It will be on 3rd March at St James’ Clerkenwell in London.  We will be discussing a range of topics from media ethics, to gamification/ augmented reality and job instability.

Tickets will be £12 – we will hopefully have an online payment method soon but until then, if you’d like to come, please drop me an email ruth@themedianet.org

More information to follow but please put the date in your diary.

On Sunday 20th May 2012 churches across the UK will be praying for the media and we’d love your help.  More info here but we’d love you to send us some generic prayer requests that we can publish online to invite people to pray for you and your media colleagues.
