COMMUNICATION BETWEEN CULTURES — MAINTAINING CONNECTIONS ACROSS CLOSED BORDERS

The fifth annual international Cross-Cultural Communication Conference is organised by five universities: Chulalongkorn University (Thailand), Curtin University (Australia, Malaysia, Singapore & UAE), Zayed University (UAE), Emerson College (USA) and Blanquerna School of Communication and International Relations, Ramon Llull University (Catalonia-Spain). Together these universities are providing a platform for a broad scope of research in cross-cultural communication and intercultural communication challenges.

The conference focus reflects a growing interest in intercultural aspects of communication. The most recent conference (Perth, 2021) attracted submissions from more than 15 countries, including Australia, New Zealand, Oman, Pakistan, Singapore, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Portugal, Germany, Russia, Turkey and Thailand.

Papers for presentation at the conference will be selected following a double-blind peer review by an international academic panel. All accepted abstracts will be published subsequently in the conference proceedings. Selected full papers from the conference will be included in the the Journal of Communication Arts (Thailand) and Communication and Media in Asia Pacific (Thailand).

The conference will include a keynote speaker, panel discussions and three parallel sessions. The conference will be free for both presenters and attendees.
