Help Shape Tomorrow’s PR & Communication Landscape — Take the 2025 Global Survey

In light of recent global research into the evolving landscape of public relations and communication — including the Future of PR and Communication Delphi study and the Global Exploration of Workplace Well-being in PR — PR and communication practitioners worldwide are invited to take part in a new global survey focusing on the local realities of professional practice.

The study aims to deepen understanding of how PR practice adapts to local and global challenges, how practitioners define their core responsibilities, and how internal (organisational) and external (socio-political, technological) forces are reshaping the profession today. The survey builds on data from professional associations and organisational networks.
