Collaboration with Media Group pd
by Maximilian Eder
We are delighted to announce our latest collaboration with Media Group pd, a distinguished German news media organization. Known for its strong foundation in print journalism, Media Group pd publishes, among others, the Augsburger Allgemeine Zeitung, one of the largest daily newspapers in Germany.
Beginning in September 2024, our research team will host, together with pd digital, the group-wide digital unit, a series of workshops with local journalists in Augsburg. These workshops aim to co-create a low-fidelity prototype designed to assist journalists in identifying topics relevant to individuals with migration backgrounds. Additionally, our team will introduce a responsible AI tool that adheres to legal and ethical standards while respecting journalistic values.
This partnership opens up exciting new possibilities, and we eagerly anticipate sharing our findings through our blog and academic publications.
