[csaa-forum] Funded call for submissions: ICA seeks First Nations scholarship for 2024 conference on the Gold Coast

[Tanja Dreher]

Dear colleagues

please forward where appropriate:

'As part of the 74th Annual Conference of the International Communication Association<https://www.icahdq.org/default.aspx> (ICA), ICA is seeking to promote the scholarship and participation of First Nations scholars in both the conference and the association as a whole. Founded in 1950, ICA is the premier international academic association for scholars engaged in the study, teaching, and application of all aspects of human and mediated communication.


The 74th annual conference will be held at the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre at Broadbeach, Gold Coast, from 20-24 June 2024. The conference theme is Communication and Global Human Rights<https://cdn.ymaws.com/www.icahdq.org/resource/resmgr/conference/2024/2024-cfp.pdf>, with an aim to foster research, teaching, and collaboration about these topics.

ICA is keen to engage First Nations scholars in debates around communication in general, and, when applicable, Global Human Rights at the 2024 conference. We recognize Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the sovereign people of Australia, and the Yugumbeh people as the traditional custodians of the lands on which the ICA conference is to be held. We welcome the participation of other First Nations researchers of the Pacific region and elsewhere to participate in the conference, such as the Māori people of Aoteoroa (New Zealand).

For the 2024 conference, the ICA will financially support the participation of up to ten First Nations scholars accepted to present at the conference, to cover travel to and accommodation on the Gold Coast, to a maximum of US $1,000 (AUD $1,600) per individual. One can propose a paper or panel that is applicable to the 2024 conference theme of Global Human Rights, or that relates to the call for papers from one or more of ICA's 33 Divisions and Interest Groups<https://www.icahdq.org/mpage/ICA24-cfps>. Priority will be given to First Nations researchers from Australia in recognition of the Traditional Custodianship, by Aboriginal and Torres Straits Islander people, of the lands on which the conference is being held.
