What's on the Media Research Hub?
Collaborative Grants support partnerships between academic researchers and advocates. Grants are awarded through open competitions, held several times per year.
The Data Consortium for Media and Communications Policy works for the principle that public policy should be made with publicly-available data—a condition mostly absent from contemporary media and communications policymaking.
The Resource Database is a community-editable field-mapping tool for linking people, institutions, research materials, networks, and projects--and the relationships between them.
Commentary: an aggregated media and technology blog on news, resources, research, and policy.
News and Events: selected news, conferences, internship offers and other opportunities in the field. To submit an item, contact mediahub@ssrc.org.
