«Intermediating – A reciprocity and creativity school for mass media»: an international seminar for students and young professionals to be held at Sassone (Rome) from 18th to 23rd June

  «Intermediating», a seminar for students and young professionals involved in mass communications –  Under the drive of the digital revolution, communication skills have multiplied and have become ever more specialised. Nevertheless, there is a continuous “bridging” between one skill and the other: between journalism and business communication, ICT and television, between literature and cinema… Focus – This international course would like to offer a “creative deepening” of particular communication fields (such as, information, cinema and tv, computer science and new technologies, marketing and enterprise/public communication), as well as, inter-disciplinary and intra-disciplinary openings. Who is promoting this seminar: NetOne, a network of professionals, students and operators belonging to five different continents, working and studying in mass communications, with the perspective of a united world. This 5-day course, is going to be held from 18th to 23rd June 2007, at Ciampino (Rome) for 120 young professionals and students between 20 to 35 years, coming from the whole world. The languages used throughout this seminar are Italian and English. Method – The interdisciplinary teachings of Inter-mediating, entrusted to some mass media experts, will offer to the participants, during the plenary sessions, an overall view of the communication reality they are working in. The remaining part of the programme will be divided into distinct workshops, each according to the field of communications. Time is allotted for contributions enhancing cohesion within the group: “exercises of dialogue and interpersonal communication”. In fact, an integral part of Intermediating will be the working method, based on this “living together” of the teachers and students and on their ongoing dialogue between them. There will be a visit to RAI, Vatican Radio and European Space Agency (ESA) in Frascati. Monday, 18th June 2007, the school will open to the surrounding territory for an evening – open to public – with the presence of Sergio Maistrello, giving a presentation of his last book, entitled: “The inhabited part of the Net”.

Four years after the outbreak of the conflict in Ukraine, we share a story of proximity, a diary that tells how quickly generosity can move. At the beginning of February, a couple from Lower Austria received a request for help from Kiev appealing for winter clothes for people facing great hardship. Twenty-seven hours later, over a ton of clothes and shoes had reached the collection point. It was an overwhelming wave of willingness and solidarity.
