One of the most important roles of the UIA is to serve as an information clearinghouse and research institute that promotes the visibility of international organizations worldwide. We currently offer collaboration and partnership with international associations in the form of an Organization Associate Membership.
In addition, the UIA also offers associations a range of services and support:
- UIA’s Annual Associations Round Table promotes and facilitates the work of international associations by providing training and networking opportunities.
