[Commlist] Call for Extended Abstracts: ECREA Organisational and Strategic Communication Conference 2025

The Organisationsal and Strategic Communication Section of the European 
Communication Research and Education Association (ECREA) is heading for 
its 2025 Conference to the beautiful island of Sardinia, Italy, hosted 
by Università degli Studi di Cagliari on 14-16 May 2025.

In today’s rapidly evolving communication landscape, organisations are 
navigating a complex interplay of opportunities and threats. Strategic 
communication has become more critical than ever as organisations 
confront developments, such as the rise of digital platforms, AI-driven 
tools, and the potential of influencer partnerships, alongside 
significant threats, including misinformation, cyberattacks, and 
polarised public opinion. Furthermore, deep-rooted issues like trust 
erosion and stakeholder activism are reshaping organisational 
communication practices. The conference delves into the "good," "bad," 
and "ugly" sides of contemporary challenges on strategic and 
organisational communication, examining how organisations across various 
sectors (private, public, and third sector) are addressing these 
multifaceted factors while considering the implications of their 
communication strategies. We invite the community of scholars, Ph.D. 
students, and practitioners to reflect upon the scope of those thoughts 
and to submit proposals that explore empirical research, case studies, 
innovative approaches, or critical reflections on contemporary 
challenges of organisational and strategic communication.
