Event description

On 18 February 2021, Australians woke up to find their Facebook ‘News Feeds’ missing Australian media content. Worldwide, access to media content produced in Australia was blocked on the platform. This unexpected move showcased our daily reliance on technology to access and disseminate information and credible news sources. News consumption on social media is so bound up in our daily lives that it has become ubiquitous. So, what happened and why? What did we learn? And where is this all going? Join us as we host a conversation to discuss these events and examine:

  • What led to the news ban, including immediate implications and observations?
  • The features of a fair and just media ecosystem that serves news producers and news consumers alike
  • Advice for Australians seeking to navigate news content and online technologies thoughtfully and conscientiously

Lending their insights and experience are those at the forefront of thinking about the intersection of technology, communications and the media:

A conversation open to all, hosted by the Australian Baha’i Community
