News from International Clearinghouse on Children and Violence on the Screen (ICCVOS), 2002.
von Feilitzen, Cecilia, Ed.
News from ICCVOS, v6 n1-2 2002
This document is comprised of the two issues of the UNESCO International Clearinghouse on Children and Violence on the Screen's newsletter published in 2002, describing research findings concerning children and media violence, children's media use, and activities aimed at limiting gratuitous media violence. The first is a double issue that begins with brief articles on how children are portrayed--or not portrayedin news sources in Asia, Portugal, Sweden, and the United States. Subsequent articles summarize: (1) children's responses to news in Greece; (2) media education in Multi-Ethnic Education; (3) journalism on children's rights in Brazil; and (4) Egyptian children's media use. Future conferences dealing with children and media violence and global campaigns promoting children's rights are also described. The second issue begins with a review of children's participation in the media in Tanzania, in the former Leningrad (now reverted to St. Petersburg), Chile, and Norway. Subsequent articles describe media literacy for Japanese third-graders, the 2nd Asian-Pacific Television Forum, and an International Seminar on Television and Violence in Chile. Both issues of the newsletter also summarize regulations and measures from around the world addressing children and media. (HTH)
