PSM Unpacked is a series of roundtables run by PMA, exclusive to our members.
The challenges facing public service media are not only growing but are also shared more widely than ever before. From funding to journalist safety, this series of roundtable forums is designed for PMA members to discuss these challenges and also share innovations, successes and solutions.
Each session, a small group of employees at PMA member organisations gather to informally exchange knowledge and best practices, and discuss how their organisations manage operations across different subject areas.
The sessions are organised on a regular basis, and bring together people in similar positions at like-minded organisations. They are also good networking opportunities, so staff can meet and speak with their global peers.
“Our roundtables are an opportunity for our members to chat with their global counterparts in a small, intimate, and freeform setting. These aren’t discussions to be shared with the public; instead, they are BY our members and FOR our members.”
– Kristian Porter, CEO of the Public Media Alliance
