2021 PRPD Conference - Redefining Public Media

 

The Public Radio Program Directors Association represents more than 800 stations, networks, producers, and professionals dedicated to the art and science of public radio programming, content creation and audience service. We are at a critical juncture as we emerge from the pandemic that changed us in so many ways, from the seismic shift in the media landscape to national events that altered our social consciousness.  We hope you'll make plans to join us Sept. 13-15, 2021 for the 2021 PRPD Conference - Redefining Public Media, held virtually in the Socio platform. More than 400 public radio professionals will gather virtually for panels and presentations designed to inspire you to meet the challenge before you and accomplish great things. We are also buidling in some social time and some much-needed networking to connect with valued colleagues and friends. All content for this virtual event will be recorded and posted immediately, giving you the opportunity to watch when it fits into your schedule.
