| Purpose: The purpose of this module is to enable students to apply communication policy and regulation principles within the fast-changing field of communication. The module addresses communication policy from a decolonial point of view by using theories and practical examples from the global south. A strategic understanding of the implications of policy and regulation in the communication environment, including on the communication user is cultivated.
