Kappa Phi’s 1st International Communication Conference “Communication between Domination and Emancipation”
Banja Luka College of Communications Kappa Phi is pleased to invite you to its First International Communication Conference “Communication between Domination and Emancipation.” The conference will be held in Banja Luka, Republika Srpska, Bosnia and Herzegovina, June 24-26, 2016.
Host
Banja Luka College of Communications is a small, independent, non-profit institution of higher education, founded in 2000. The idea of the school was to introduce communication studies to higher education, as well as to introduce dialogic communication to education in our country. It was a long time ago that we kicked the podiums, desks and benches out of our classrooms. We wanted to talk to each other. We wanted to make knowledge achievable by other means. That is what our school has stood and struggled for ever since. This conference is organized in part to mark 15 years of communication education at our school. Thus the theme of the conference also subsumes a major educational dilemma. And 15 years on, it seems that the importance of talking to each other has only become more germane, not only to education. We will be delighted to welcome you and talk to you in Banja Luka about these and other issues on our conference agenda.
