The International Association for Media and Communication Research is
now receiving applications for the 2019 IAMCR /Urban Communication
Research Grant/. The grant is worth USD 1,750 and supports communication
and media research that advances understanding of the growing complexity
of the urban environment. IAMCR members in good standing are welcome to
apply.
Hosted by IAMCR and funded by the Urban Communication Foundation
<http://urbancomm.org>, this grant supports communication and media
research that advances our understanding of the growing complexity of
the urban environment. It is predicated on the assumption that
communication scholars have a valuable contribution to make to an
understanding of the urban landscape. The grant is open to all IAMCR
members in good standing.
The USD 1,750 grant is designed to support research already in progress
or in the beginning stages. It gives priority to projects that feature
innovative, inter-disciplinary, applied, and creative approaches to
studying the central role of communication in the transformation of
urban cultures and communities.
A 6-person committee consisting of four IAMCR members and two Urban
Communication Foundation representatives will judge the proposals. IAMCR
representatives in the committee are Nico Carpentier (Chair), Cees
Hamelink, Janet Wasko and Olesya Venger. Urban Communication Foundation
representatives are Gary Gumpert and Susan Drucker.
The grant is awarded each year at the annual IAMCR Conference, this in
Madrid, Spain from July 7-11, 2019. Grant winners are expected to attend
the conference and present a paper related to urban communication. They
must also report to IAMCR and the UCF on the progress of their research
at the following year's conference, and submit a paper for this conference.
Application Procedure
Submit the application electronically to
UrbanCommunication2019 at iamcr.org
<mailto:UrbanCommunication2019 at iamcr.org?Subject=Urban%20Communication>.
Applications will be accepted until April 7, 2019. Applicants must be
current members of IAMCR.
The complete application must include:
* A letter of application, not exceeding two pages, that describes the
