Media & Communication: Student research cooperation with the Embassy of France to New Zealand

On November 28, 2022, a PD-PCF Student Research Hub “Communicating sports diplomacy of France towards New Zealand” presented its findings to the Embassy of France to New Zealand in Wellington.  In 2022, Public Diplomacy and Political Communication Forum (PD-PCF) of the Department of Media and Communication secured support from the Embassy of France to NZ to conduct this student-led research project. The team of five students – under-and post-graduates – examined communicating France as a sports actor in New Zealand in traditional and social media.
