Join us for a panel discussion with Joseph Turow, Robert Lewis Shayon Professor of Media Systems and Industries at the Annenberg School for Communication at the University of Pennsylvania; Itzhak Yanovitzky, Professor of Communication and Public Health and Chair of the SC&I Health and Wellness Faculty Cluster at Rutgers University; Julie Pryde, Administrator of the Champaign-Urbana Public Health District; and Cherie Avent, Assistant Professor of Educational Psychology at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
Our panel will explore how media, technology, infrastructure, and community can come together to foster a holistic communication ecosystem that effectively addresses the multifaceted challenges of our times. By bringing together distinguished scholars and community leaders from varied fields, this panel seeks to facilitate a dialogue aimed at closing the gaps between academic research, technological advancements, infrastructural growth, and community engagement. Our objective is to highlight collaborative avenues for these sectors to work together, leveraging shared knowledge and resources to cultivate healthy communities that are resilient, just, and equitable, with a vision for a sustainable future.
A reception will follow.
