#AMIRetreat2023 is addressed to members of the academic community from the fields of media studies, journalism, political science, and law, which aim to discuss and advance ideas on how public discourse and journalism evolve in the digital society, the creative avenues they find, the challenges they face and the opportunities that lie ahead. The Conference also seeks to build bridges between academia and the profession and between the media actors and experts of their regulation.

 The Scientific Committee of #AMIRetreat2023 invites potential speakers to submit their abstracts by April, 30th, 2023 based on the relevant Call for Papers (CFP), which is published here<https://amiretreat2023.advancedmediainstitute.com/about/>.

The discussions during the Conference will help set a stepping-stone for both academics and professional journalists, as well as the communication professionals to reflect on the ideal types of journalism practice and public speech in the current digital media environment as we continue to encounter challenges to and transformations of our digital media landscapes.
