Claudia Padovani and the Global Media Policy Working Group organized a panel at the IAMCR 2023 in Lyon where editors of the IAMCR/Palgrave Macmillan Book series were invited to speak about the future of the field. I could not be there in person, but was asked to send a video contribution. I am adding the video here, as it could not be played at the panel due to technical issues. The title of the panel was “Digital challenges transforming governance and research: contributions to the IAMCR/Palgrave series.”
