The one day conference, sponsered by the U.S. media outreach of the state department, will be recognising three particular types of blogger on middle-eastern current affairs: Journalistic bloggers (bloggers from various news organisations), bloggers in crises (bloggers in countries such as Iran), and bloggers in civil society (bloggers from the West writing about the Middle East).
A special additional category of "Middle East bloggers" will be presented at the 2009 International Media Council Awards to be held on the 11th May. A short-listing meeting for the media awards will be held on the 18th March at 6:30 at the Next Century Foundation.
