Based on HONF media research (Education Focus Program/EFP), it has been found many cases related to activities and research focusing on people, community, and technology. Concern to technology, Physics and Biology sciences are supposed to be the main focus expanding EFP thru New Media Art and Technology.

In your opinion, is there a potential for change on and change through a policy level, i.e. has the status of policy as an accelerator/ a meaningful factor for practice changed?
The constant change of new media culture makes policy creation and implementation a challenging task that can only be addressed through an ongoing dialogue between policy-makers and practitioners. The Helsinki Agenda took forward the ideas that emerged in the Amsterdam Agenda and it particularly emphasized the need to shift new media arts and culture policy to better support international, translocal, non-nation based cultural practices. It does mean that an adequate support from the authority should not be a constraint in order to mainstream its policy on practicing those issues. In theory, the status of policy as an accelerator can be factors that influence the practice. The potentials for change on and change thru a policy level is how to inform and communicate its issues in suitable approaches, thus the authority having a common understanding about it issue. Follow up on finding appropriate approaches should be considering as a crucial agenda in order to mainstreams new media cultures policy.
