As (all too) much of the litterature in Media & Communications studies and journalism education is written from a "developed world" (read anglo saxon) perspective, it should be of interest to all involved in the area to obtain materials from other perspectives.
One place to look is the Asian Media Information and Communication Centre (AMIC).
As a resource center, AMIC has published a wide range of valuable
material on communication issues in Asia gathered from its own conference
papers, workshops and research reports.
The Asian Journal of Communication is a joint research publication of
the Asian Media Information and Communication Centre, Singapore and the
School of Communication and Information, Nanyang Technological
University of Singapore.
They also organize workshops and conferences of importance to us all such as;
The Asia Forum on Health Communications, 23 - 24 February, next year in Singapore and "100 Years of Radio: The Journey Ahead" in Singapore, on the 21 - 23 June, 2006 as part of Broadcast Asia.
