In response to the current political discourse and the growing urgency for active civic participation, The National Association for Media Literacy Education 2017 conference theme will be Engaging Citizens, Building Community. The conference will take place in Chicago, Illinois, from June 26-June 28, 2017, at Roosevelt University.

The conference theme, "Engaging Citizens, Building Community" encapsulates the NAMLE conferences objective to bring stakeholders together to advance media literacy education policy and practice. Educators, scholars, policymakers, media professionals, elected officials, and community members will gather together to address different perceptions of medias role in a deeply divided political climate.
