Crossing shifting borders – In the next weeks Doc Next Network focusses on the mainstream imagery of IMMIGRATION IN EUROPE, still largely dominated by ‘traditional’ media like public and commercial tv, radio and newspapers. In September and October 2012 Doc Next Network sheds an alternative light on traditional imaginary, by bringing forward local contexts and the personal perspectives of immigrants to the wider European stage.
Each two months Doc Next Network share videos, articles and more around a certain topic or theme that is close to our goals and believes. We want to engage young people, NGO’s, policy makers and mainstream media in the collection (of documentary activities of young people from Europe) so that the voices and views our makers can be heard, listened to and acted upon.
CROSSING SHIFTING BORDERS is Doc Next’s first featured theme. You can find all past en present featured themes here. Please visit our Facebook Page to get more involved in CROSSING SHIFTING BORDERS.
We invite you to add content! If you want to contribute, please mail your videos, calls, articles or photos to Puck de Klerk.
