Interactive Media and Justice-themed Community Day at Inholland The Hague

On January 13th, the students of the Sustainable Media Lab transformed their final projects from the semester into an interactive Media and Justice-themed Community Day. 

Hosted in the Mauritszaal of Inholland The Hague, stakeholders from our internal and external learning community joined our students to explore how media facilitates or impedes the quest for justice,  how  it  can  connect  or disconnect  society,  and  ultimately,  what  role  it  plays  in supporting the values of The Hague, the city of peace and justice. Our teams of students presented interdisciplinary and creative solutions centered  on the theme of Media and Justice, working closely with our stakeholders from The Municipality of The Hague, The Hague Humanity Hub, and Beeld & Geluid Den Haag.
