Statement
(English)
I am Yiming Chen. I hold PhDs from both Uppsala University (Sweden) and Vrije Universiteit Brussel (Belgium) and serve as an assistant professor at Xi’an Jiaotong–Liverpool University. My research explores three major topics in Chinese media practices driven by digital technologies: professionalism, privacy and convergence. A member of IAMCR since 2015, I regularly present my research to the IAMCR community and have been impressed by its global commitment to diverse voices. Motivated by this spirit, I am eager to serve on the International Council to promote worldwide research exchange and, especially, advocate for underrepresented voices. This vision emerges from my extensive previous experience in organizing diverse academic activities, which demonstrates my ability to foster collaborative, inclusive environments. The 2016 China-Europe Winter School, for which I was a team leader, provides an outstanding example of successful collaboration with the Participatory Communication Section of IAMCR. I will champion initiatives that promote diversity, equity, and inclusion in IAMCR’s structure and research practices, and I pledge to advocate for equitable funding opportunities, accessible conferences, and multilingual resources to ensure that all researchers have the opportunity to contribute. Vote for me to bridge geographical divides and build a more inclusive IAMCR!

Je m'appelle Yiming Chen. Je suis titulaire d'un doctorat délivré par l'université d'Uppsala (Suède) et la Vrije Universiteit Brussel (Belgique) et je suis professeur adjoint à l'université Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool. Mes recherches portent sur trois thèmes majeurs des pratiques médiatiques chinoises induites par les technologies numériques : le professionnalisme, la protection de la vie privée et la convergence. Membre de IAMCR depuis 2015, je présente régulièrement mes recherches à la communauté IAMCR. Son engagement global en faveur de la diversité des voix m'a beaucoup impressionné. Motivé par cet état d'esprit, je suis impatient de siéger au Conseil international afin de promouvoir les échanges mondiaux en matière de recherche et, en particulier, de plaider en faveur des voix sous-représentées. Cette vision est le fruit de ma vaste expérience dans l'organisation d'activités académiques diverses, qui démontre ma capacité à favoriser des environnements collaboratifs et inclusifs. La session d'hiver Chine-Europe de 2016, pour laquelle j'étais chef d'équipe, est un exemple remarquable de collaboration réussie avec la section de communication participative de l'IAMCR. Je défendrai les initiatives qui encouragent la diversité, l'équité et l'inclusion dans la structure et les pratiques de recherche de l'IAMCR, et je m'engage à plaider pour des opportunités de financement équitables, des conférences accessibles et des ressources multilingues afin de garantir que tous les chercheurs aient la possibilité d'apporter leur contribution. Votez pour moi si vous souhaitez combler les fossés géographiques et construire une IAMCR plus inclusive !
