How do the keynote speakers relate to ‘Rethink Impact’?

The four keynote speakers for ECREA 2022 have each elaborated on how they see themselves and their research in relation to the conference theme ‘Rethink Impact’. Find the interviews here or locate them under ‘programme’ on the conference website.


In the recently published interviews, the four keynote speakers share their main interests and how these inspire the research and work they do. Furthermore, they each articulate experienced key challenges on how to achieve impact in society within media and communication research and education.

The Local Organising Committee (LOC) of ECREA could earlier this year confirm Sonia Livingstone (London School of Economics), Gary Younge (University of Manchester), Eli Skogerbø (University of Oslo), and Mirko Tobias Schäfer (Utrecht University) as keynote speakers for ECREA 2022.
