World Public Relations Forum 2020 is postponed

In light of the ongoing Covid-19 developments, it is with regret, that the Global Alliance for Public Relations and Communication Management and Public Relations Institute of New Zealand announce that the World Public Relations Forum scheduled for October 2020 in Auckland, Aotearoa New Zealand is postponed.

The health and safety of attendees and the wider community is the organisers’ highest priority and combined with global travel restrictions and ongoing uncertainty around public gatherings, the decision to postpone was the only prudent course of action.

Global Alliance and Institute of New Zealand look forward to sharing more information on the new date and location for the forum in the coming weeks.

Unite against Covid-19. Stay safe. Be kind.

WPRF2020: the next edition of the World Public Relations Forum

Global Alliance and The Public Relations Institute of New Zealand invite EUPRERA members and colleagues in our field to join the next edition of the World Public Relations Forum (WPRF2020) in Auckland, New Zealand, on October 12-15, 2020.

Drawing on the unique Maori and Pacific culture of New Zealand and surrounding Pacific and Asian neighbours, WPRF2020 will offer a meeting place for discussion, deliberation and interaction on our WPRF2020 theme Connecting with Courage: human connections and relationships are the heart of public relations. As our profession enters a new decade and navigates the shifts affecting our society, how do we ensure that these connections are authentic, sustainable and represent the multitude of voices? It takes courage. 1500-word abstracts on this theme can be submitted until December 31, 2019.

The WPRF2020 includes a Research and Practice Colloquium to be held on October 12: a full day of discussions and presentations from educators, researchers and practitioners, which builds a bridge between the academic and practitioner communities.
