The research paper explores the critical role of Communication Accommodation Theory (CAT) in communication of crisis and collaboration with reference to Imran Khan's historic speech at the United Nations General Assembly. Khan expressed and exhibited the exceptional potential of communication as the first ever Pakistani leader to courageously discuss the concerns of Islamophobia and the Kashmir dispute in this global platform. The study investigates how communication accommodation strategies can be identified within Khan's speech, which helps establish and maintain a positive relationship with the audience, as well as fostered collaborative discourse on these sensitive topics. By examining Khan's speech, the research explores the alignment between communication accommodation strategies, and Khan's approach in communication with a particular focus on speech convergence and divergence. In addition, the research examines the collaborative aspects of Khan's speech; how it fostered dialogue and mutual understanding on pressing global issue of Islamophobia. The findings reveal that Khan's address was not merely a conspicuous speech but an act of diplomacy demonstrated through skillful communication, using the power of words to shift the global narrative. His speech demonstrated the presence of nonverbal accommodation and assertiveness, that engaged the audience and promoted positive constructive discourse at international forum of UN General Assembly. The research thus highlights the significance of CAT in establishing collaborative and reconciliatory discourse and communication dynamics at international forums, advancing our comprehension of political discourse and persuasion.
