Children's Rights Vs Press Freedom - Who Wins?"

"Children's Rights Vs Press Freedom - Who Wins?"

Eventy is pleased to be helping Quarriers to organise a
conference taking place on 11th November focussing upon
"Children's Rights Vs Press Freedom - Who Wins?". It is a
national conference taking place at the Forum in Bath and
there has already been a great deal of interest in the
event from both the public and the media.
The media provides the majority of the public with their
window on the world. It is their source of news,
information, gossip, debate and education. The media also
has enormous responsibility in balancing entertainment
and/or the public right to know with social health
and protection for the vulnerable. Where is the correct
balance between the rights of children and the freedom of
the press? All of the debates will have the opportunity
for the audience to participate and question speakers. A
final question and answer session will pull the conference
together with recommendations and future action proposed.
We are delighted that the Rt Hon Tessa Jowell MP will be
joining us as a key note speaker, along with Lynn Geldof,
European Regional Communications Advisor for UNICEF.
Martin Bell - Broadcaster & previously MP for
Tatton, Cheshire - will be hosting our final Q+A session of
the day. There are also a range of organisations involved
ranging from the UK Youth Parliament and Children's Express
to CAFCASS, the British Association of Social Workers
and the Voice of the Listener and Viewer. Delegates will
come from a range of professions and services from
solicitors and charities to social care and press offices.
