The field of intercultural communication (IC) has undergone a significant transformation over the past few decades. From its humble beginnings as a niche area of study, it has now become a vibrant and diverse field that encompasses a wide range of research and practice. This evolution is due in part to the increasing globalization of the world, which has led to a greater need for understanding and communicating across cultures.

One of the most important milestones in the development of IC as a field was the establishment of the International Communication Association (ICA) in 1950. The ICA is a professional organization that brings together scholars and practitioners from all over the world to share their research and ideas on communication. The ICA has played a major role in promoting the development of IC as a field, and it continues to be a leading force in the field today.

Another important milestone in the development of IC was the publication of the first issue of the International Journal of Intercultural Communication (IJIC) in 1976. The IJIC is a peer-reviewed journal that publishes original research on all aspects of IC. The IJIC has played a major role in disseminating research on IC, and it continues to be a leading journal in the field today.

In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the development of IC as a practice. This is due in part to the increasing demand for intercultural competence in the workplace. Intercultural competence is the ability to communicate and interact effectively with people from different cultures. It is a skill that is essential for success in today's globalized world.

There are a number of different ways to develop intercultural competence. One way is to take courses on IC. Another way is to participate in intercultural training programs. Still another way is to simply spend time interacting with people from different cultures.

No matter how you choose to develop your intercultural competence, it is an essential skill for success in today's world. By understanding and communicating across cultures, we can build bridges between people and create a more peaceful and prosperous world.

The Global Evolution of ICMe

The International Conference on Intercultural Communication (ICMe) is a biennial conference that brings together scholars and practitioners from all over the world to share their research and ideas on IC. The first ICMe was held in 1990, and it has been held every two years since then.

The ICMe has also been a catalyst for the development of new research and practice in IC. For example, the ICMe has led to the development of new models of intercultural communication, new methods for teaching IC, and new ways of assessing intercultural competence.

The ICMe has also had a significant impact on the field of IC in developing countries. The ICMe has helped to raise awareness of the importance of IC in developing countries, and it has provided a forum for scholars and practitioners from developing countries to share their research and ideas.

ICMe 13

ICMe 13 was held in Kobe, Japan, from July 12-16, 2023. The conference theme was "The Global Evolution of an Emerging Field of Research and Practice." The conference brought together over 1,000 scholars and practitioners from all over the world to share their research and ideas on IC.

ICMe 13 featured a wide range of presentations, including keynote speeches, paper presentations, and panel discussions. The conference also featured a number of special events, such as a welcome reception, a closing banquet, and a cultural tour of Kobe.

ICMe 13 was a successful conference that brought together scholars and practitioners from all over the world to share their research and ideas on IC. The conference provided a forum for the exchange of new ideas and the development of new collaborations. ICMe 13 also helped to raise awareness of the importance of IC in the world today.
