The annual international congress of the European Media Management Association (emma) will be organised next year by NHL Stenden and held from 5 to 8 June on our Leeuwarden campus.

She will coordinate the four-day event in collaboration with representatives of the Academy of Communication & Creative Business and the Erasmus Research Centre for Media, Communication and Culture (ERMeCC) at Erasmus University Rotterdam. 

About emma 

emma is an international not-for-profit academic organization that was founded in 2003 to support growth in media management research, scholarship and practice throughout Europe and around the world.

Theme #emmaleeuwarden 

The theme of #emmaleeuwarden will focus on the many areas media innovation and social transformations have in common. This will help facilitate academic discussion on the opportunities and threats posed by media innovation and transformation. Media plays a crucial role in the cultural, social, economic and political environment and has a huge impact on the transformation of society. So as to stress the valuable insights both academic and practice-oriented research have to offer in the field of media management and communication, the congress is being organised in collaboration with Erasmus University.
