Children’s broadcasting is changing fast. But are the needs and interests of children and society being adequately provided for in today’s multi-channel and digital media landscape?

Or are children increasingly at risk from a media landscape dominated by the commercial imperatives of advertising and profit?

Alison Sharman, Head of CBBC;
Estelle Hughes, Head of CITV;
Professor Al Aynsley-Green, Children's Commissioner for England;
Jonathan Drori, Director Culture Online, DCMS.

Key sessions to include:
Watching the Box - what are children really watching
The Missing Programmes - why are there so few programmes for teenagers and why are genres including factual and arts underserved?
What's so great about Television? - we ask key players in broadband, interactive games and digital radio if they can provide a real alternative to television
The Way Ahead – in an increasingly market driven broadcasting environment, how can those concerned about the quality of children’s broadcasting help shape the future?
