We had our first "Coffee and Cake Break", where everyone from the Media Culture & Policy Lab gets together to catch up on the latest studies, ask questions and have a nice chat. ☕ Yesterday we celebrated the start of our lab. Here's to many more inspiring and fun times together!

#Etmaal2025 is amazing! I presented my first poster (co-authored with @leendhaenens.bsky.social and my CELSA project colleagues) about the comparison of Flemish and Hungarian migration/refugee discourse in Parlement, news and social media in 2015 and 2022.
