Highway Africa creates social media platform

10 May 2010

Highway Africa has set up its own social networking platform, The Network, on the Highway Africa website. The platform, created for journalists and media professionals, aims to connect delegates with other like-minded individuals. Registered members of The Network can share stories, ideas and discuss the state of the media in general, and more specifically media in African countries.

Members can also upload and share your pictures and videos and reconnect with past delegates through instant chat, forums and blogs. Suggestions for future conference topics, research and training may also be sent through via the platform.

For more information, go to www.highwayafricanetwork.com.

Registration has officially opened for the 14th annual Highway Africa Conference. Taking place at Rhodes University, Grahamstown, Eastern Cape, 5 - 7 July 2010, the conference is the world's largest gathering of African journalists. This year's theme is 'African voices in the global media space'.

Deadline for registration is 4 June 2010. To register, go to www.highwayafrica.com/registration.
