His extensive experience, both as an academic and a professional, reflects a deep commitment to advancing media and communication research on a global scale.

Genilo’s international reputation, established through his research, publications, and collaborations, makes him an ideal candidate for the International Council. Throughout his career, he has demonstrated a profound understanding of the complexities of media, public relations, and communication studies. His dedication to fostering international collaboration aligns seamlessly with IAMCR’s mission.

In conclusion, I wholeheartedly endorse Professor Jude William R. Genilo’s nomination for the IAMCR International Council. His wealth of experience, international outlook, and dedication to impactful research make him an exemplary candidate for this position.

I feel honoured to write this recommendation letter for Professor Jude William Genilo for his candidature as a member in International Council for the International Association for Media and Communication Research (IAMCR) community. As his colleague and as a faculty member of the Media Studies and Journalism Department of this university, I can attest to the fact that Professor Jude is an honest,
dynamic, experienced and supportive scholar in the area of media, public relations and communication studies. Recently he has been promoted to Pro-Vice Chancellor of the University of Liberal Arts Bangladesh for his excellences in coordination, networking,
and administrative skills in the higher education arena. From his everyday interaction and guidance, we also add value to our knowledge and skills, which help us develop time-befitting course outlines and teaching materials for our students, and increase our
skills in doing research in media and communication studies.
Professor Jude is always motivating us to thrive in international networks such as IAMCR to explore theories, knowledge, and commendations to empower students, researchers, general people and scholars in the developing countries particularly in
Asia. I believe if he is selected as a member of the International Council of IAMCR, he will delegate our voices in your IAMCR forums properly from South Asia. Therefore, I post my vote in favour of his membership in this council with a recommendation to consider his suitability to serve our interests at IAMCR.

His dedication to advancing the mission and goals of IAMCR, coupled with his extensive experience and expertise, make him an exemplary candidate for this position.

I am pleased to endorse Jude's candidacy for the International Council of IAMCR. Jude is a passionate advocate for academic collaboration, recognising its pivotal role in addressing the complex challenges of our era.
Jude's commitment to promoting a culture of knowledge-sharing aligns seamlessly with the ethos of IAMCR. Having actively participated in IAMCR for almost a decade, Jude became one of the first IAMCR Ambassadors; he has been representing Bangladesh since 2015. In this role, Jude has organised the Dhaka Media Summit, an annual regional event that brings together over 100 academics and practitioners to engage in meaningful discussions on crucial issues in media and journalism.
Furthermore, Jude has been an invaluable member of IAMCR’s Membership Committee since November 2019, demonstrating dedication to the organisation's growth and development. Currently serving as the Pro Vice-Chancellor and Head of the Media Studies and Journalism Department at the University of Liberal Arts Bangladesh (ULAB), Jude brings a wealth of experience to the table.
In summary, Jude's extensive involvement in IAMCR, academic achievements, and leadership roles make him an outstanding candidate for the International Council. I am confident that, if elected, Jude will contribute significantly to the growth and global collaboration within the IAMCR community.

Jude is one of our most active IAMCR ambassadors; he is highly competent, committed and gets the job done. As a nice combination of a do-er and a thinker, I trust he will do well in the international council.

It is a great pleasure for me to write this endorsement letter in support of Prof. Jude Genilo’s candidacy for the International Council of IAMCR.
As an academic I have been growing up for the last ten years and half with Prof. Jude’s passionate lead and mentorship. I see him as a passionate educator/educational leader who always looks for ways to improve- as in “perfection is always a work in progress,” and motivates everyone to pursue excellence. Also, he upholds the value of GROWING TOGETHER.
Prof. Jude has been working at the University of Liberal Arts Bangladesh (ULAB) since 2009 as the Head of Media Studies and Journalism department. Under his strategic and visionary leadership, the department has grown significantly, became one of the best communication and media schools in the country, earned recognitions at national, regional (South and Southeast Asia) and global level for its quality graduates who impact the industry and community, quality publications, collaborative projects that impact the society, outreach programs etc.
As an ambassador, Prof. Jude is carrying the IAMCR flag in Bangladesh for [almost] a decade. He has always been active in this role. He led the establishment of Dhaka Media Summit, an annual conference organized by ULAB and IAMCR, that successfully completed two editions in 2022 and 2023 wherein over 100 academics and practitioners came together in each of the editions. Also, IAMCR Bangladesh organizes several research workshops, lectures, master classes where students and young professionals, and general publics in some cases, get the opportunity to interact with academics and practitioners working in both local and global institutions.
I believe Prof. Jude will contribute significantly to the strategic growth of the organization both at the global and regional level.

I support Prof. Jude Genilo to become the council member, he is an “international person”, study and work in different countries with amazing achievement. What is more, he is the head in his university, and have management expererience, so I am sure he can bring something new to us.
