Abstract: ABSTRACT SICA, the Section on International and Comparative Administration marked its 50th anniversary in 2024. Reflecting on the section's evolution and contributions to comparative public administration, this article examines SICA's journey from its origins as the first section of the American Society for Public Administration (ASPA) to its current position as a key platform for international dialogue and knowledge exchange. Drawing on the SICA history project, which included interviews with former chairs and award recipients, we trace SICA's historical development, analyze its organizational dynamics, and examine its role in fostering global perspectives within comparative public administration scholarship. Our analysis highlights SICA's contributions to decolonizing comparative public administration, bridging academic‐practitioner divides, and addressing complex global challenges. We explore future directions for SICA and comparative public administration, emphasizing the importance of inclusive scholarship, multi‐level analysis, and engagement with non‐Western administrative traditions to address emerging governance challenges in a complex global environment.
