#equality: intersecting views on gender, media and digital technology

This 4ᵉ edition of the Assises genre/numérique will focus on 2 main areas: professional practices in the media and online safety.

The aim is to take a critical and inclusive look at the transformations taking place in the information sector, combining field experience, digital issues and gender questions.

In terms of professions and professional practices, discussions will focus on the integration of inclusive approaches into content and teams, action levers for engaged journalism and the exploration of new digital formats, podcasts, social networks and influence.

The second section, focusing on online security, will look in greater depth at digital violence and the tools for preventing it, solutions for protecting sources in a monitored technological environment, and finally the effects of digital technology on the mental and physical health of information professionals.

You'll have the opportunity to delve deeper into these different aspects in the company of speakers such as..:
