Organizational affiliates become members of the Consultative Assembly of Organizational Affiliates (CAOA). Through the Chairperson of the CAOA, who is a Board member, affiliate concerns are represented at IAGP Board meetings. Affiliates are invited to send a representative to CAOA meetings and to participate in the CAOA online discussion forum. (Please contact our CAOA Chair: Mona Rakhawy (Egypt) caoachair@iagp.com   if your organization is not yet represented on our online discussion list.) Organizational affiliates receive a copy (one per organization) of IAGP publications, and their organization is listed in our Website and in the membership directory. For details of our affiliate organizations, please click here.

NB: Members of IAGP's affiliate organisations, including their IAGP representative, do not automatically become individual IAGP members. They are strongly recommended to also take out individual IAGP membership (separate payment required), so that they can join Sections and obtain other benefits of individual IAGP membership.
