Çiğdem Bozdağ is an Associate Professor at the Faculty of Pedagogy and Educational Sciences, University of Bremen, Germany. Her academic work focuses on media literacy education, social media studies, and the intersection of media with migration and diverse societies. She contributes significantly to understanding how digital media shapes participation in increasingly diverse and polarized societies through rigorous research and community-engaged scholarship. Bozdağ's research interests span several interconnected areas within media studies and education. She specializes in media literacy education for diverse societies, examining how educational approaches can be made more inclusive for students from various cultural backgrounds. Her work on social media practices explores how users navigate political polarization online, manage diverse networks, and share news in authoritarian contexts. She also investigates multilingual media repertoires among young people in migration societies, analyzing how language choices shape media consumption and participation. Her methodological approach frequently employs participatory action research, emphasizing collaboration with communities rather than research on communities. Her recent publications demonstrate a clear trajectory toward understanding resilience in media ecosystems. She examines how audiences resist disinformation through multi-level factors, explores disconnectivity as both resistance and control mechanism, and investigates inclusive approaches to media education that recognize diverse cultural backgrounds. Her work consistently bridges theoretical frameworks with practical implications for media education and democratic participation in increasingly fragmented media environments. Bozdağ actively collaborates with scholars across Europe, particularly with Yasemin Karakaşoğlu at the University of Bremen. She contributes to editorial boards and thematic issues focused on inclusive media literacy. While specific grant information isn't detailed in the available publications, her participatory action research methodology suggests engagement with community-based projects and educational initiatives aimed at addressing media literacy gaps in diverse populations. Her research demonstrates how media education can move beyond culture-blind approaches while avoiding over-emphasis on cultural differences, creating space for more nuanced understanding of how young people navigate media landscapes in superdiverse classrooms and neighborhoods. This work has significant implications for educational policy and practice in increasingly multicultural societies.
