*DEADLINE EXTENSION: New deadline: 1 April 2019*
*ECREA DMM Young Scholars Workshops – Brussels, 29 Oct 2019*
This year’s DMM young scholars’ workshop welcomes acclaimed scholars Prof. dr. Myria Georgiou (London School of Economics and Political Science) and Dr. Donya Alinejad (Utrecht University) at Vrije Universiteit Brussel
as part of the Digital Fortress Europe Conference (www.ecreadmm.com).
We all know that it is a difficult task to identify, validate and present our main findings and contribution of our research projects as young scholars in the field. Considering the interdisciplinary nature of our field
as well as the continuously changing landscape of media and communication technologies, it is crucial for us young researchers to situate our doctoral projects within academic literature and research. This is the reason why this year’s young scholar workshop
aims to help ten doctoral researchers who work on the intersections of diaspora, media and migration to find their own voice and make sure that it is heard.
Our one-day long workshop is divided into two parts:
The application process:
It is required that the applicants submit a summary of their research project (between 1500 and 2000 words) by 1 April 2019 to the e-mail address [log in to unmask].
