The International Communication Association (ICA) is an academic association for scholars interested in the study, teaching, and application of all aspects of human and mediated communication. ICA began more than 50 years ago as a small association of US researchers and is now a truly international association, with more than 4,500 members in 80 countries. Since 2003, ICA has been officially associated with the United Nations as a non-governmental association. The ICA has partnered with Wiley Blackwell to publish the 12-volume International Encyclopedia of Communication (Donsbach 2008, www.communicationencyclopedia.com).
