As in every summer in recent years, the International Media Academy brought life to the University of Liechtenstein campus this August. This year, however, it was time to say goodbye to a long-standing member.

Elisabeth Neumann had been with the International Media Academy for Journalism and PR at the University for eleven years, sharing her wealth of experience and constructive feedback with many young media talents. The German journalist spent her very last working day in Vaduz and celebrated her retirement on August 6 with students, course director Claudia Schanza, and program secretary Kirsten Steinhofer.

The four-week program is a practical introduction to the world of media and PR, teaching the ABCs of journalism. Students learn how to find exciting topics, ask critical questions, conduct interviews, and write press releases. They gain insights into both traditional and modern media sectors and write their own articles. www.uni.li/journalismus
