Communication & Mass Media

The Mass Media & Communication Unit of ATINER organizes its 22^nd Annual International Conference on Communication and Mass Media, 13-16 May 2024, Athens, Greece sponsored by the Athens Journal of Mass Media and Communications. 

The aim of the conference is to bring together academics and researchers of Communications, Mass Media and other related disciplines. You may participate as presenter of one paper, chair of a session or observer. Past conferences drew participants from five continents and more than 100 countries, presenting papers on diverse topics such as political communication, EU enlargement, Website design, cross-media ownership, war correspondence, cultural studies, film, public relations, telecommunication policy, advertising, agenda setting, juvenile audience preferences, and cross-national communication, among others. Consistent with the theme of ATINER’s small academic events, all programs may include a few sessions on current topics in education and research. Please note that all our conferences are non-thematic as explained in our policy (click here). However, academic members and friends can take the lead to organize and chair a stream as part of this conference.

Papanikos, President, ATINER (president@atiner.gr).
