09 Nov 2021 Open call for IAMCR ambassadors

The International Association for Media and Communication Research (IAMCR) invites its members to become IAMCR Ambassadors for their country or region for a period of three years. IAMCR members can apply to become an IAMCR faculty ambassador or to become an IAMCR PhD ambassador.

IAMCR Ambassadors are a passionate community of volunteers who support IAMCR’s mission, activate and support other IAMCR members, and creatively promote the mandate and distinctiveness of the association.

IAMCR now has two types of ambassadors which are (1) IAMCR PhD ambassadors and (2) IAMCR faculty ambassadors. IAMCR faculty ambassadors are senior/experienced scholars, and IAMCR PhD ambassadors are PhD students or early-stage scholars without a university appointment.

How to apply in order to become an ambassador
