“Crossing Boundaries in Culture and Communication” – 14th edition
We are thrilled to announce the 14th edition of our international conference “Crossing Boundaries in Culture and Communication”, organized by the Department of Foreign Languages of the Romanian-American University.
The new edition of the international conference will take place both offline (RAU campus) and online (Zoom) between 31st of October – 1st of November 2024.
“Crossing Boundaries in Culture and Communication” is an annual international conference meant to bring together the preoccupations and contributions of those interested in human communication and cultural phenomena in the global context: foreign language educators, academic researchers, journalists and others, from schools, universities or alternative areas of humanistic approach around this country and abroad.
This unity in diversity should be achieved by connections established within and among a variety of fields which often blend into each other, proving the interdisciplinarity of modern research: education, teaching, literature, media etc. which also allow complementary approaches in linguistics, rhetoric, sociology etc.

- Dr. Susannah RODRIGUEZ DRISSI – University of California, Los Angeles, USA
- Dr. Oksana PRYSHLIAK – Ternopil Volodymyr Hnatiuk National Pedagogical University, Ukraine
