The 16th European Christian Internet Conference
June 15-18, 2011
Fuerstenried Palace, Munich, Germany,
"User Experience: From Content Strategy to Emotional Messages"
The 16th ECIC conference will focus on the users and their experiences. Understanding the users is the key to successful work with the Internet.
Webworkers, journalists, webmasters and webpastors from European Christian churches are invited for networking and vital discussions.
The conference will be held in Fuerstenried Palace in Munich, Germany.
ECIC is about sharing, learning and networking.
Conferences are one of the most efficient ways to learn about best practices and new tools, expand your circle of smart thinkers and get inspiration to energize your day-to-day operations.
Making connections with other Christian internet professionals provides ideas and resources for future projects.
Discussing how other people have implemented processes cuts down the time to execute similar projects at your organization.
Living, praying and working together during ECIC keeps you connected even when the conference has finished.

The Beginning of the ECIC
Some thoughts of Rev. Jakob Vetsch, Zürich, the founder of Pastoral Care on the Internet
June 16th, ECIC XVI, Fürstenried Palace, Munich
In the middle of 1995, the first popular webbroser Netscape 1.0 came to the market. E-Mailing was done with Eudora light and the search engines were Altavista and Excite.
On September 27th in this year, I founded and started the first Pastoral Care on the Internet (www.seelsorge.net), and in October the Evangelical Church of Germany (EKD) has put a website on the net. This was done by Dr. Matthias Schnell of the “Gemeinschaftswerk evangelischer Publizistik” (GEP). He was my first partner in my internet-activities.
