Day 2 – Thursday, 30th May, 1400 – 1530
Parallel Session 4: National Unity, Peace Building and Media
Binding all the people together in one common bond, no matter what their race, caste, sub-caste, region or religion has remained elusive for many nations. Several factors account for this: poverty, unequal distribution of wealth, poor basic services, stifling political systems, regional conflicts and discrimination. Can media help in enabling people live together peacefully and identify themselves as part of a single whole? What are some gaps mainstream and alternative media can address to bring about integration, unity and peace?
