We're hoping to inspire folks in our movement to more fully embrace the efficiencies, the community media tools and participatory democracy aspects of using technology in new ways to generate future (and present) self-sufficiency, increased community engagement and save time and money.

We will be highlighting the new media technologies that can be incorporated into the workflow of Public Access Television and Community Technology Centers. Denver Open Media is leading the efforts that allow access centers to operate on a streamlined, user-driven model and is integrating the efforts of other National ACM members, like MNN and CCTV. The Regional conference serves as an excellent opportunity for to see this new model in-action and to see how the Open Media approach can work for access stations and CTCs.You can check out their technology-infused vision at www.denveropenmedia.org.

Media and Democracy Mini-Conference

The Media and Democracy Coalition will host a pre-conference event to discuss how PEG issues can be elevated in national discussions of broadband policy. With broadband issues likely to be a topic of activity in the new Congress, PEG advocates need to advocate for Internet policies that can preserve or expand community access. This is a working meeting, and participants should come prepared to think creatively about new policy ideas.
