The objective of Media Party University is to generate an impact in the training of future journalists, developers and designers.

We want to encourage students to explore, connect and create, in an environment of interdisciplinary collaboration.

We thus seek to open new spaces to rethink the role of the media and journalism, and contribute to improving the quality of information in our societies.
