About this Unit
Communication across national boundaries is becoming more common and complex. To be effective such communication involves an understanding of the challenges associated with transcultural communication, cross-linguistic communication and cross-cultural communication. This unit provides an overview of these issues, with particular attention to relations between Australia and its Asian neighbours. Related topics including communicating development, communication flow, national and international communication policies and regulation will be critically analysed.
