Future Communications - Collaborative Endeavour

Collaborative Endeavour

This collaborative initiative brings together diverse institutions, including the University of Toulon (France), Oslo Metropolitan University (Norway), Multimedia University (Malaysia), International Centre for Strategy & Communication (Auroville), Integral World (Auroville), AWARE (Auroville), the Educational Multimedia Research Centre, Puducherry (India), and Ananda Rangapillai Library, Pondicherry University (India).

The collaboration emphasises the shared responsibility of institutions to engage in meaningful discourse and find innovative solutions to the multifaceted challenges we face today as global citizens.

For many years, the Department of Electronic Media and Mass Communication at Pondicherry University has collaborated with the UFR Ingémédia Department of Toulon University (France) involving faculty exchange and regular presentations of the works of our respective PhD students.

Auroville - A Hub for Transformation

Our collaboration with Auroville, an international township in Tamilnadu, India founded in 1968 on the principles of human unity, adds a unique dimension to the conference. Auroville serves as a living laboratory for conscious evolution, alternate societies, cultures, and governance models.

Conference participants will have the opportunity to delve into the practices of Auroville, interact with thought leaders, and explore sustainable perspectives that can reshape our future communications. Field visits and curated plenary sessions will provide insights into ongoing research and initiatives related to sustainable development, peace, integral education, conscious community communication, and governance.

International Dialogue and Networking

The conference provides a platform for international dialogue and networking, fostering collaboration among scholars, researchers, and practitioners. It catalyses the exchange of ideas, perspectives, and best practices, creating opportunities for long-lasting partnerships that transcend geographical boundaries.
