The purposes of the Association are: to provide an international forum to enable the development, conduct, and critical evaluation of communication research; to sustain a program of high quality scholarly publication and knowledge exchange; to facilitate inclusiveness and debate among scholars from diverse national and cultural backgrounds and from multi-disciplinary perspectives on communication-related issues; and to promote a wider public interest in, and visibility of, the theories, methods, findings and applications generated by research in communication and allied fields.
