New Neighbours is the most recent piece in a puzzle of European projects and efforts carried out by leading international and national media and civil society organizations to promote responsible journalism and respectful dialogue amongst all members of society. Led by the European Broadcasting Union, the 24-month project runs until the end of 2020 and has produced the third edition of the documentary film series New Neighbours, involving 9 European Public Service Broadcasters from Croatia, Germany, Czech Republic,
The Netherlands, Italy, Slovenia, Belgium, Spain, and Portugal. The films explore
real stories of new encounters between ‘locals’ and ‘newly arrived’ citizens, showing the complexities and the richness of intercultural integration processes. In the development of the series, the broadcasters cooperated with local civil society and community media organizations in order to explore creative angles and ideas.
Objectives
➤ Encourage people with diverse backgrounds to get involved in intercultural audio productions (especially women from minority groups/migrants and refugees).
➤ Discuss and test sustainable formats for multilingual programs.
➤ Produce joint programs during and after the workshop

The documentaries and media productions created by community media will be shown, and a debate on the issues of the project will be stimulated. Also of interest will be the community media initiatives featured in the Council of Europe “Spaces of Inclusion” report which include programmes presented by migrants for migrants as well as multilingual outputs aimed at engaging with host communities.

The project works with public service media, community media, and civil society organisations. It aims to challenge stereotypes and expose commonly held myths, placing migrant voices at the heart of discussions on migration and delivering innovative messaging in order to help promote the integration of migrants into local communities.
