italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies

Dear all,

please find below the programme of the one-day event I will be running on Tuesday 12 March with my colleague William Allen from COMPAS - Oxford: Media use and representation among migrants and refugees. Developing a new agenda (ESRC Impact acceleration fund). 

As you can see, there are two separate sessions. 

The first one is a meeting with stakeholders. We are not aiming at having a huge number of people in the room, but if someone wants to join us, there are still a few places available. 

The second event is public, and of course everybody is welcome (coffee and tea provided).

Best,


Federico
