Join leaders in social and digital media and public service broadcasting from around the world as they share knowledge and best practices on innovations in communication and media.
Since 2006, the annual Beyond Broadcast conference has explored the evolution of participatory digital public media. This year's conference, titled "Public Service Media from Local to Global," brings this ongoing conversation to the world stage, examining these issues from a global perspective.

Sandra de Castro Buffington, Director of the Lear Center's Hollywood, Health & Society project will serve on the "That's Entertainment! Or Is It?" panel with Neal Baer, executive producer, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and Zoanne Clack, executive producer and writer, Grey's Anatomy.

This panel will examine the role of TV shows in spreading helpful information and the ways network television serves the public in areas of critical importance, such as safety and health.
