Funder Delegation to the 11th Allied Media Conference, by The Media Justice Fund and Resource Generation

The Media Justice Fund of the Funding Exchange and Resource Generation is organizing a Funder Delegation to the 11th Allied Media Conference (AMC), which will be held in Detroit, Michigan from July 16 – 19, 2009.

For the past 10 years, AMC (www.alliedmediaconference.org) has evolved its definition of media, and the role it can play in our lives – from zines to video-blogging to breakdancing, to communicating solidarity and creating justice. Each conference builds off the previous one and plants the seeds for the next. Ideas and relationships evolve year-round, incorporating new networks of media-makers and social justice organizers.

With input from both grantees and grantors across the media justice field, the delegation will discuss ways to support the innovative work taking place at the intersection of media production, media policy and social justice organizing.  The Media Justice Fund of the Funding Exchange and Resource Generation invite you to participate in this important conversation.

If you are interested in joining the delegation, please contact Hye-Jung Park at (212) 529-5356 ext.321 or hyejung.park@fex.org by May 27, 2009.
