  Crisis Communication in the Digital Age - Call for Symposium Papers



  International Communication Days is organized by Üsküdar University
  Faculty of Communication annually with a different theme each year.
  The main title of this year’s international symposium is “Crisis
  Communication in the Digital Age”. The symposium will be held on
  26-27-28 May 2021 via zoom / webinar with the participation of
  renowned keynote speakers at the national and at the international
  level. Simultaneous Turkish-English interpretation will be provided
  during the keynote speeches.

  Our world has been struggling with an unprecedented global pandemic
  for the past year. The rapid spread of the pandemic all over the world
  suddenly confronted all humanity with a serious crisis situation in
  all dimensions of life. While the importance of communication is
  deeply felt in the management of the crisis that brought life to a
  standstill, we are also witnessing how digital communication
  technologies are effectively included in the process. The transfer of
  social relations, business life, education, cultural and artistic
  activities to online environments through digital technologies in a
  period when social spaces are restricted, people are confined to their
  homes and shelter in their private living spaces, shows that the world
  is on the brink of a digital revolution. Therefore, this current
  crisis requires reconsidering the power of communication in the
  context of digitalization from different dimensions.

  The 8th International Communication Days / Crisis Communication in the
  Digital Age Symposium aims to discuss various aspects of crisis
  communication in the context of digital communication technologies,
  focusing on the Covid-19 outbreak. The views and thoughts to be put
  forward in the symposium will be shared with the relevant academic and
  social circles and efforts will be made to turn these contributions
  into practice.

  The 8th International Communication Days / Crisis Communication in the
  Digital Age Symposium will last for three days. Professor Paul Argenti
  (Darthmouth University), known for his work on crisis communication
  and management, Professor Simon Cottle (Cardiff University), known for

  Atabek (Yaşar University), known for his studies on communication
  governance and strategy, and Associate Professor Gregory Simons
  (Uppsala University), who has many books and articles in the field of
  media are among the keynote speakers of the symposium. Also, Liz
  Yeomans, PhD (Leeds Beckett University), known for her research on
  crisis communication and empathy in public relations and Fügen Toksü
  (Turkish Public Relations Association - TUHID), known for both her
