Conference: Communication for Social Change: Intersections of Theory and Praxis(6-8 January, 2015) at National University of Singapore
Please share! Dear all, We would like to cordially invite you to attend the Center for Culture-Centered Approach to Research and Evaluation (CARE)’s conference titled *“Communication for Social Change: Intersections of Theory and Praxis”*, from *6-8 January 2016* at the National University of Singapore. CARE is a research center under the Department of Communications and New Media at NUS (http://www.care-cca.com/). This conference brings together communication scholars, both experienced and new, to share, dialogue, debate, and discourse on the future of social change in the discipline. Rooted in the idea that theory is deeply intertwined with praxis in the field, our conference is also envisioned as a platform to build solidarity among people working within the academic-activist spectrum. Featuring a mix of informative plenary sessions and paper presentations by faculty and graduate students from all around the world, the conference will be most beneficial for faculty and students that are interested in social change, activism, health communication, and postcolonial studies, from a communicative angle. The opening keynote speaker for the conference is the distinguished Professor Collins O. Airhihenbuwa. The conference will also include other themed panel sessions chaired by esteemed scholars such as Professor Mohan J. Dutta, Professor Ambar Basu, Professor Raka Shome, and Professor Barbara Sharf.
