“ECONOMÈDIA” is a transmedia communication project aimed at creating informative audiovisual content related to economics and society. “ECONOMÈDIA” stands as a channel for sharing academic and scientific information, as well as information on current events; knowledge which helps the public engage in informed and rigorous debates. It is also place for active and independent learning, useful for both formal educational purposes and instructive entertainment. 

This project will be shared via social media through short-form videos related to knowledge, current affairs and learning that facilitate virality, yet with a website or YouTube channel as a base, to further develop the content and guide users towards external references. 

By cooperating with academic, social and educational entities, it offers a panoramic and interdisciplinary overview of each subject. The team behind “ECONOMÈDIA” is young and interdisciplinary. Members include Esther Motjer Ayats, Ricard Grèbol Jiménez, Xavi Blanco Fernández and Pol Guillaumes Quera, who was recently honoured at the 2020 Barcelona Awards, organised to make creation, research and innovation projects possible in the fields of culture, education and science.
