Statement
IAMCR is our home where we convene and discuss our matters in a frank and transparent manner embracing the values of human brotherhood. Communication lies at the core of the ongoing transformative processes shaping every aspect of our lives either as a catalyst or as a consequence. In IAMCR, we need to work together regardless of language, race, ethnicity, religion, income, color and geographical location especially north or south to have a voice on how communication scholarship and media industry serve a safe, peaceful, productive and just world.
My motivation to stand as a candidate of ICA is to strengthen the coherence of the association, promote knowledge production, and facilitate the exchange of experiences not only by holding conferences and publishing journals but also by networking with schools of communication, media industries and other global and local journalism and communication associations. I believe IAMCR has to host the true diversity of the world, the genuine values of inclusion, equity and transparency. It should champion the genuine respect for the right to communicate, allowing the expression and practice of indigenous cultures and languages.
If I am elected, I would strive to achieve these goals and to make communication scholarship matters beyond the confines of the association.
