ICA inaugurates Port Harcourt chapter

International Communication Association (ICA) will today inaugurate its Nigeria chapter at Emerald Energy Institute Auditorium, University of Port Harcourt, Rivers State.

In 2022, Port Harcourt was selected as one of the locations to host a regional hub that convenes concurrently with the ICA yearly conference.

ICA President, Prof. Noshir Contractor, said: “The ICA yearly conference, which will be anchored in Paris and Port Harcourt regional hub by the University of Port Harcourt, will be one of our most successful regional hubs engaging intellectually and socially with participants in Paris and other Regional Hubs.”

“These ICA regional chapters initiative allows chapters to have ICA branding, organise locally or regionally to recruit members and organise events that will help support and build community among undergraduate and graduate students and faculty of communication. Members, local institutions, and stakeholders are expected to organise logistical and administrative support for a self-sustaining chapter relying on membership dues to meet its expenses.”
