- The Image as Advocate: Shaping Cultural Conversations
- 1-2 October 2026

The Communication & Media Studies Research Network offers an interdisciplinary forum for the discussion of the role of the media and communications in society. We seek to build an epistemic community where we can make linkages across disciplinary, geographic, and cultural boundaries. As a Research Network we are defined by our scope and concerns and motivated to build strategies for action framed by our shared themes and tensions.
The Eleventh International Conference on Communication & Media Studies calls for research addressing the following annual themes.
We're happy to share the schedule of sessions for the International Conference on Communication & Media Studies. We update the schedule on a weekly basis, so please make sure to check back regularly, as the schedule is subject to change. If you've recently registered but are not yet scheduled, your presentation should appear here within the next week. Because this is a draft schedule, you may be the only paper currently in your session; don't be concerned—we'll include more papers as we update the schedule.
