Mission of the Center
The Center for Media, Communication, and Global Change promotes engaged research and teaching that explores the consequential role of media, communication, and new technologies in global political, social, and cultural change. The Center was preceded by the Civic Media Lab 2017-2022.
We conduct and connect:
- interdisciplinary scholarly research within and beyond the university;
- pedagogical initiatives, curricular innovation, and student-faculty collaboration;
- creative research projects in the areas of technology, art, and at their intersection;
- collaborations with civil society actors globally;
- conversations with policy advocates.
