Program

For three days, journalists will meet other knowledgeable mediators of information from different regions of the world in Innsbruck. In conversations with colleagues and other experts, visitors find out what is going on behind the scenes of the information on international events, which is often hastily and superficially conveyed, and can contribute.

Current social, political and cultural developments are the focus of the debates, from book presentations, exhibitions, doc-films and audio features. The Journalismusfest Innsbruck opens a window to the complex present in which we live.

How Does Science Reach Media and Society?

Conversation

Conveying scientific insights to a broad interested public is a wide-ranging field. Formats, platforms and kinds of storytelling are becoming more and more varied. Communicating complex learnings in an understandable manner remains a challenge for information mediation institutions at universities, for scientists themselves, and for independent science journalism. After all, in times of fake news and conspiracy theories, quality journalism has come under pressure. The possibilities for spreading scientific information keep increasing in number. But how can well-established scientific findings by conveyed in an understandable, appealing and credible way?
