<p style="margin:0in"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">The Community and Social Interaction faculty in the Department of Communication at the University of Colorado Boulder are hosting a small, in-person conference in Boulder, CO from
<b>July 31-Aug 2, 2022. </b>The venue will be the historic Chautauqua Missions House and the Rocky Mountain Climbers Club at the foot of the Rocky Mountains in Boulder, Colorado. The theme of the conference is “<b>Cultivating Communication Practices</b>'' and
we are inviting abstracts (250-500 words) of individual papers that engage with this theme.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">The conference theme is inspired by the work of Robert T. Craig who wrote: “To cultivate a social practice means to improve and disseminate it [...] the imperative to improve communication
and to disseminate better communication practices is both fundamental to the historical emergence of our discipline and consistent with current trends in the field” (Craig, 2018, p. 290). We are designing this conference to serve as a forum for the discussion
of how communication (conceived as a practice, or a set of practices) can be studied for the specific purpose of its cultivation. Related topics include, but aren’t limited to, the following: </span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p style="margin:0in"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">Historically, this conference is the next in a series of Ethnography of Communication conferences hosted at universities in Omaha, New York, and Helsinki. To honor this history and
the sense of community developed around these conferences, we especially welcome abstracts taking Ethnography of Communication approaches to the cultivation of communication practice. Additionally, one of our aims in the current conference is to advance the
mission of the Community and Social Interaction research area within our department by exploring intersections among Ethnography of Communication and other complimentary social interaction approaches. Thus abstracts engaging with discourse analysis, conversation
analysis, sociopragmatics, or sociocultural linguistics are welcome as well. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">Abstracts can be a) empirical projects analyzing a communication practice within a particular community, b) more theoretically oriented, engaging with the possibility and challenges
of cultivating communication practices, or c) working papers developed <b>by graduate students</b> about how specific bodies of communication scholarship can aid the cultivation of particular communication practices. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
