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.

Conveying the significance of complex learnings in specialised fields for a broad interested public proves to be an exciting challenge: for journalists as well as for bodies with expertise in imparting information like universities, for influencers on social media and for scientists themselves. Discussing how comprehensible and engaging form of scientific communication can succeed:
