Intercultural and Development Communication
The new era has begun for the Intercultural and Development Communication Division! With the 75% "yes" votes, our division (previously with two subdivisions) will now assume the status of two independent divisions in the ICA: (1) Intercultural Communication Division, (2) International/Development Communication. As two independent divisions, we can look forward to exciting challenges and rewards in the years ahead.

In this transition time, here are some plans for the upcoming ICA:

(1) We will hold the "farewell" reception, jointly sponsored by the Intercultural Communication Division and the International/Development Communication Division.

Farewell Reception
Friday, May 25th 6:00 to 7:00 pm Hilton Hotel/Union Square 17 & 18

 

(2) The two divisions will hold separate Top-Paper panels.

Top Three Papers in Intercultural Communication
Sat. May 26th, 12:00 to 1:15 pm Hilton Hotel/Union Square 17 & 18

Top Two Papers in International/Development Communication
Sun, May 27 - 3:00pm - 4:15pm, Building/Room: Hilton Hotel / Union Square 19 & 20

 

(3) The two divisions will hold separate business meetings to discuss the future directions as independent divisions. Here are some issues to be discussed in the respective business meetings:

(A) Intercultural Communication Division (presided by Min-Sun Kim): Introduction of a new Vice-Chair, James Neuliep. Future plans regarding awards such as Top Scholar Award, Top Dissertation Award. Changes in the by-law,etc.

Intercultural Communication Business Meeting
Friday, May 25th 4:30 to 5:45 pm Hilton Hotel/Union Square 17 & 18

(B) International/Development Communication Division (Presided by Oliver Boyd-Barrett):(Potential name change of the division, changes in the by-laws, elections for vice-chair, future arrangements regarding awards such as Top Scholar Award, Top Dissertation Award).

International/Development Communication Business Meeting
Sunday, May 27 4:30-5:45 pm, Hilton Hotel, Union Square 19 & 20

Please let us know if you are interested in adding any important agendas for the respective business meetings. We especially encourage our members' greater involvement this year and invite the discussion of any issues that concern the reorganization of our division.

To keep the status of two independent divisions, it is vital that we continue our membership and encourage our colleagues to become the members of either or both of these two divisions.

We hope to see many more productive years ahead for these two division. See you in San Francisco!
