Revisioning Public Interest Media

Project description

The future of public interest media

Rapid digitalisation, platform-driven distribution and shifting societal expectations are challenging public interest media, including content creation and governance structures. To prepare for the future, these media (to be understood as both public service media and other providers of public interest content such as newspapers and online journalism platforms) must rethink how they remain relevant and impactful in a data-driven ecosystem. Supported by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the RePIM project trains a new generation of management-level professionals through an interdisciplinary, Europe-wide programme connecting academic teams with industry partners. Doctoral candidates explore how public interest media can adapt production, packaging, distribution and infrastructures to sustain relevance. By examining strategic transformations across diverse European contexts, RePIM seeks to reinvent the way society experiences trustworthy, public-focused media content.

Objective

"The Doctoral Network ""Revisioning Public Interest Media"" (""RePIM"") aims to support the reinvention of public interest media and the development and reconfiguration of relevance and societal impact in a data-driven and platformized media ecosystem, by training next generation management-level staff. Radical market and societal changes challenge existing business models of public interest media, the content they create, the technical infrastructures they employ for distribution, and the governing structures which regulate and support them. A fundamental rethinking of public service media as well as all providers of public interest content (newspapers, online journalism initiatives–together coined ‘Public Interest Media’) is needed. To respond to these challenges, the project proposes an interdisciplinary, Europe-wide and cross-sectoral research and training programme by connecting world-leading academic teams, associated partners from industry and 12 DCs to study the future development and required transformations of public interest media. The research and trained DCs set out to revision the relevance of public interest media, the conditions required to sustain relevance and the ways in which they are produced, packaged, distributed and the (infra)structures that support them. RePIM does this through a highly ambitious and advanced focus on key strategic transformations across departments, media players and different European contexts, and the managerial skills required to reconfigure public interest media in a radically changed media ecosystem."
