The Future of News Media: A Conversation with Eric Maddox, Executive Director of Open Roads Media

As reported by NPR, Forbes, Reuters and many others, Eric Maddox is the Executive Director of Open Roads Media and the Founder and producer of Virtual Dinner Guest Project. He completed his undergraduate studies in Philosophy and Classic Literature and his MA in International Conflict Transformation.

After completing his graduate field research in the West Bank, Eric set up the very first Virtual Dinner Guest Project in Mexico in 2011. Since that time, Eric has traveled throughout the Middle East, North Africa, South Asia, and Europe to expand the network and the impact of The Virtual Dinner Guest Project and to promote what he believes to be the future of news media; collaborative production between local communities, on a global scale.

He currently resides in Spain where he continues to produce projects with Open Roads Media as he hosts Latitude Adjustment podcast that highlights underrepresented communities, places, and issues around the world.
