The national SPJ office is asking for ideas for the 2016 national convention, with a deadline of Jan. 27.

So, let’s show the rest of the SPJ there are international issues that affect them in America’s heartland.

Here is a link to the announcement: WANTED: Your Programming Ideas!

Post your ideas on our SLACK account. Let’s toss ideas back and forth and come up with two or three REALLY good ideas that the EIJ16 organizers can’t ignore.

Some successful programs in the past:

• Understanding Al Jazeera
• Defining and dealing with self-censorship (Video link between conference and Hong Kong)
• Grant and study opportunities overseas
• Why press freedom issues around the world are important to Americans
