Amman hosts German-Arab media dialogue

Delegates from many countries will discuss "Youth and Media" in German-Arab Media Dialogue Conference.

AMMAN - Jordan is the venue for the German-Arab Media Dialogue Conference 2007 to be held from 26 – 27 June 2007 in Amman. This event is jointly organised by the German Foreign Office and the German Institute for Cultural Relations, in cooperation with the German Embassy in Amman, representing the German Presidency of the European Union in Jordan.

The German-Arab Media Dialogue is organised on a yearly basis in an Arab country. This year's workshop will focus on "Youth and Media". Delegates from Germany, Jordan and several Arab countries will discuss the future of the professional (or "traditional"?) media and journalism against the background of the growing influence of the internet and web log-scene among the young generation in the Arab world.
