<p class="Default"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">The multi-disciplinary conference aims to bring together academics and professionals, especially from the fields of media studies, journalism, communication, politics,
law, sociology, governance, humanities, cultural analysis and technologies, to elaborate, discuss and advance ideas on the inter-relationship, synergies, conflict, policy and future directions of humanities, journalism, and communications in a new era dominated
by technology. It will address areas related to the dynamic interplay between the media, the polis (politics) and the public sphere (agora). Some of the main themes that will be covered in this conference include advances in digital journalism, the future
of humanities as a discipline in a technology-dominated era, the regulatory framework of the media in the new technological era, the challenges and ethical considerations of content creation in the new media, and the examination of how technological advances
can promote research in humanities. We welcome theoretical, methodological and empirical submissions on these issues.

<h1><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black;font-weight:normal">Moreover, and perhaps more importantly, the conference seeks to build bridges between academia and the profession, between the humanities and the
new technologies, and between the media actors and experts of their regulation. Thus, we welcome laboratories, workshops and seminars to demonstrate innovative practices, discuss ideas and share best practices regarding the themes of the conference</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">.
