“CambieRai” kicks off today, April 12, at the Rome Auditorium-Parco della Musica. This is the first consultation on the “public radio, television and multimedia services” to be held in Italy. Sixteen technical tables have been convened by the Italian Ministry of Economic Development (MISE) and organized in 4 macro-areas (Italy, Creative Industry, Digital, Italian Society). Over 140 individuals will participate on behalf of 62 associations, 20 public agencies and institutions, 11 study centres and think tanks, as well as 20 experts and 16 RAI representatives, one for each table.

Besides the associations of TV, cinema, radio, animation and information authors and producers, participants include representatives of Italian goods manufacturers and services for tourism, digital services, cultural heritage, services sector, schools and universities and consumers. For the first time, Italy will be fully represented and debating the future of the public service.

The Fondazione Mondo Digitale will be represented by Scientific Director Alfonso Molina, who will participate in the table on “Digital Literacy” (Digital macro-area), coordinated by Paolo Barberis, Councillor for Innovation, Presidency of the Council of Ministers.

The tables will collect information for the development of a questionnaire, which with the help of Istat, will be published for 45 days on the government website, beginning in May. Italian citizens will be able to express their opinion on the public service they would like in view of the new agreement between the state and RAI that will expire in 2016.
