3rd Symposium Forum Media and Development:
Measuring Change: Planning - Monitoring - Evaluation in Media Development

September 27-28, 2007
Katholisch-Soziales-Institut (KSI)
Bad Honnef, near Bonn (Germany)

Just as any other field in development cooperation, media support has to prove its relevance, effectiveness and impact. Key questions for media assistance are therefore 
- how to effectively promote a media system and its enabling environment that fosters democracy and contributes to the overall development goals and, - how this impact could be substantiated? 

The third symposium of the Forum Medien und Entwicklung entitled "Measuring Change: Planning, Monitoring, Evaluation in Media Development" will not only follow up these general questions but also focus on the current practice of monitoring and evaluation in the field. The symposium aims at sharing the knowledge of methods for steering existing projects and at providing lessons learned for future initiatives. 

The symposium is organised by the Catholic Media Council (CAMECO), a consultancy for media and communication, in cooperation with the "Forum Medien und Entwicklung" (Forum Media and Development). The progamme and registration forms can be downloaded at http://www.cameco.org/mez/fome.html.

Completed registration forms should be sent to the CAMECO by August 15, 2007.

We look forward to welcoming you at the event!
