IAMCR - International Association for Media and Communication Research

The committee seeks to define new modalities, works more effectively among IAMCR members towards the common objectives of the association according to the different strengths, capacities, experiences and priorities.

There are four main objectives of this committee: First,  fostering constructive encounters and fruitful exchange between academic, professional and research concerned with media and communication field. Second, producing a shift in the locus, impetus, implementation, and innovation to regional levels to create a real diverse setting, by invigorating on regional connectivity, & identity. Third, providing a 'shared but differentiated responsibilities' to support a fair and balanced access of IAMCR members to knowledge, resources, and decision making within the association. Fourth, establishing new forms of regionalisms with the aim of embracing a gradual change from comparative media heterogeneity to an expanded homogeneity.

In the process of attaining this regionalisation, locally recruited national coordinators are invited in every region to reach out to the media and communication experts, professionals and academics, with the aim disseminating information on IAMCR, discussing and making recommendations on common regional issues and encourage membership.
