The Knight Center for International Media at the School of Communication, University of Miami, was established in February 2007 to address the assumption that the world will not solve its most difficult problems unless its people learn to communicate more easily across national borders.

The mission of the Center is to integrate scholastic and creative energies to serve and transform the global journalism and communication profession. The Center serves as an incubator for cross-disciplinary collaborations that allow communication professionals and journalists to interact with researchers, media makers, technologists, artists and scholars to develop new media models and methods for empowering the future leaders of the communication field.

The Center will focus on the expanding realm of multimedia visual journalism and cross cultural communication in the Americas and beyond. Through established endowed Knight Chairs, a program of professional residencies, and other projects, the Center will build an international network of collaborations to address underrepresented issues of global significance.
