ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

International Communication Association

The International Communication Association (ICA) is like a big group of people who like to study and talk about how humans communicate with each other.

You know how you talk to your friends and family with words and sometimes with your body language too? And how you might watch videos or play games on your phone and send messages to other people too? That's all a part of how we communicate.

Well, the ICA is interested in studying all of that and more! They want to learn about things like how people use social media to connect with each other, how we get news from different sources, and even how movies and TV shows can affect the way we think and feel.

People from all over the world can join the ICA and share their ideas and research about communication. It's like a big club where everyone can learn more about how humans talk to each other and the impact it has on us.
