IIC Regional Groups

There are a number of independent associations affiliated to IIC located around the world, supporting the particular needs of the conservation community in the countries concerned. Over the years, various IIC Regional Groups, who are independent to IIC, have developed along different lines with many becoming national bodies. Regional Groups represent the interests and concerns of their membership and do not speak for or on behalf of IIC or its members.

The first Groups were those in the United Kingdom (formerly UK-IIC which became Icon) and the United States of America (formerly the American Group-IIC, which became AIC, the American Institute for Conservation).

There are currently nine IIC Regional Groups in the Nordic region (the Nordisk Konservatorforbund: Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden), Austria, Croatia, France, Greece, Italy, Japan, Malta and Spain.

Each IIC Regional Group is required to adhere to the aims and objectives of the Institute as expressed in our Memorandum of Association and agreed through a Memorandum of Understanding; its by-laws must be approved by the IIC Council; and its officers must be members of IIC. There is no obligation for IIC members to join a Regional Group in the country where they may be living or working, however members of IIC Regional Groups receive a 10% discount on IIC membership subscription fees and our welcome to join our global community.

As a result of our Regional Groups, our combined international reach extends to nearly 7,000 conservators and conservation professionals. Globally we recognise a further 20 national level bodies who are not formerly affiliated to IIC, a full list is available here.  Expressions of interest for new Regional Groups or for professional organisations/ national level bodies to become affiliated to IIC, can be submitted at any time to the IIC Office, iic@iiconservation.org, and will be considered by Council.

For further information about our support for Regional Programmes please contact Marina Herriges marina.herriges@iiconservation.org , Regional Programme Manager.
