Arab Bloggers for freedom and democracy
The uprisings in the Arab World have changed the Western political landscape dramatically. While the outcome of the changes is not yet clear, the general consent is that the media – particularly social media – has played a pivotal role in mobilizing the masses and bringing down authoritarian rulers. Revolutions are not produced by the media. However, recent events in North Africa and the Middle East have illustrated that digital applications such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and others have become decisive tools of political empowerment and mass mobilization.
We have invited a group of bloggers from the Arab World to join us at the Global Media Forum. They will share their personal experiences and discuss the importance of the media and particularly social media in the recent uprisings. We will also ask them to share their views on the role of the media in promoting and safeguarding freedom and human rights and what role, if any, the outside world (and particularly Europe) should play in these crucial times.

Our guests will be citizen journalists who blog about political and social issues in Arabic from Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Palestine, Jordan, Syria and Bahrain.
