Hui Zhao
I received my Ph.D. in Media and Communication at Lund University. My research includes social media, crisis communication, social change and E-governance. My current research interest primarily focuses on studying organisations in global environments and the relations of organisations to the wider society in specific cultural and institutional contexts such as China. My publications have appeared in Journal of Public Relations Research, International Journal of Strategic Communication, Journal of Communication Management, Public Relations Inquiry, China Perspectives, among others.
Prior to joining Lund University, I have been continuously engaging in rich media-related training, working, and research practices. I received an M.A. in Communication from Hong Kong Baptist University and a B.A. in Chinese Linguistics and Literature from Fuzhou University. I have worked as a researcher for government department and also possess several years of journalistic experiences in different job positions and media agencies.
I will have a visit stay at the Centre for East and South-East Asian Studies from September until December.
