Last year, more than 100 academics and practitioners from more than 25 countries met in Osaka at the inaugural MediAsia event in a remarkable cross-cutural and interdisciplinary discussion. This year we will again encourage academics and scholars to meet and
exchange ideas and views in a forum encouraging lively but respectful dialogue.
This international conference will bring together a number of
university scholars working throughout Japan, Asia, and beyond to share
ideas.
MediAsia 2011 will afford the opportunity for renewing old
acquaintances, making new contacts, and networking across higher
education. Academics working in Japan and Asia will be encouraged to
forge working relationships with each other, as well as with colleagues
from Europe and the US, facilitating partnerships across borders. We hope to see you in Osaka in the fall.
Last year our theme was "Brave New World" and the response exploring both the positive and negative effects of the media is a discussion we hope to continue this year. with the dual themes of "Power without Responsibility" and "New Horizons". For more information about the themes, please go to the "Submissions" page above.
