The Global Media & Communication Collective (GMCC) exists to support and promote global, comparative, and transnational communication and media research and practice.

Using diverse epistemologies and methodologies, we create opportunities for intellectual exchange and dialogue; cultivate collaborative research projects; advance new knowledge through publishing and advocacy; assemble resources for de-centered qualitative social science and critical humanistic research and teaching; mentor students who are engaging in global research; and establish research networks and partnerships.

Our vision is to serve as the hub for de-westernized, de-centered, and hybrid global media and communication scholarship and practice at the University of Michigan and beyond.
