IAH Annual Report 2021

Governing and managing

All members, individual or corporate, are members of the Association’s international body. IAH encourages the formation of national or regional committees in order to carry out local administration, promote contacts and co-operation and undertake relevant studies of local or regional interest. National committees may be organised in a number of different ways according to national practice and circumstance.

The Council of IAH, appointed by election by the full membership every four years, is the Association’s governing body. The majority of our current Council was elected in September 2020 in the lead up to our online General Assembly; following the sad demise of two Council members a further election took place during 2021 in the lead up to our online Congress in Brazil. You can find out more about IAH’s Council, including each individual, at https://iah.org/about/council.
