This is a half-day conference organised by the Media School at Bournemouth University on Friday 25 January 2013, at which a panel of leading experts and commentators will examine the future of social cohesion in Britain. What are the main lessons to date of our experiences of ‘multiculturalism’? Where do the major fault lines in British society now lie? Can an inclusive public sphere be created in the age of social media? This afternoon of leading-edge ideas, debate and research will be of value to anyone with a professional, academic or citizenly interest in community relations, cultural difference and social conflict in Britain.
The speakers will be:

David Aaronovitch of The Times
Jamie Bartlett of Demos
Professor Ted Cantle CBE of the iCoCo Foundation
Professor Ann Phoenix of the Institute of Education
Jasvinder Sanghera of KarmaNirvana
Stephen Jukes, Dean of the Media School at Bournemouth University, will be in the chair.

The conference will be held in the University’s Executive Business Centre, a short walk from Bournemouth train station. The conference doors will open with tea and coffee at 12.30 p.m., and the final session will close at 5.30 p.m.
