Media Economics 2015

The workshop is an annual event, hosted in different locations each year, and this year marks the first on African soil. Prof Willem Boshoff and Prof Rachel Jafta are the local organizers, working with Prof Lisa George (Hunter and CUNY) and Prof Simon Anderson (Virginia). The target audience is academics, policymakers and those involved in the media industry.
