One World Media Week
In 2010 we introduced the inaugural One World Media Week, an inspiring programme of events held in conjunction with the Awards.
The 2011 One World Media Week took place between May 9 - 13, ranging from panel discussions and lectures covering relevant issues in media and development, film screenings and a day for new and emerging media professionals interesting in documentary filmmaking and journalism, which featured free workshops, masterclasses, discussion and more.
The next One World Media Week will be held in Autumn 2012 and details will be posted here when available.

Research
One World Media has partnered with other organisations to carry out research on the role of broadcasting in increasing global understanding, and how broadcasters cover issues that relate to the developing world. The most recent report is The World in Focus, produced with IBT (International Broadcasting Trust). It looks at the international content of UK news programmes, and how audiences connect with the wider world. You can go to the IBT website to download the report, as well as previous reports on how UK media cover the developing world.
