Abstract
Communication for development is an emerging academy and professionalism whose presence in development practice is more likely to increase aid effectiveness and improve the success rate of development programmes. This article presents the academy and professionalism communication for development (C4D). In particular, it describes the author’s familiarity with C4D and his attempt to raise it into an academy as well as establish it in the field as a profession. He pulls together his experiences in Africa, his authorships and his most recent funding activities in Pakistan to demonstrate how C4D can be an effective role player in the development process.
期刊介绍：
Asia Pacific Media Educator is an international refereed journal published twice a year by SAGE Publications (New Delhi) in collaboration with the School of the Arts, English and Media, Faculty of Law, Humanities and the Arts, University of Wollongong in Australia. The journal follows international norms and procedures of blind peer reviewing by scholars representing a wide range of multi-disciplinary areas. APME focuses on generating discussions and dialogues among media educators, researchers and journalists. Content ranges from critical commentaries and essays to research reports and papers that contribute to journalism theory development and offer innovative ideas in improving the standard and currency of media reportage, teaching and training specific to the Asia Pacific region. Papers that integrate media theories with applications to professional practice, media training and journalism education are usually selected for peer review. APME also carries a Q&A section with book authors. APME takes conventional book reviews to a more creative level where reviewers directly engage with authors to understand the process that authors take in researching and writing the book, clarify their assumptions and pose critical questions.
