IGA Committee

The Annual General Meeting of the IGA is held once a year (electronically in alternate years when there is not an IGA conference).  Potential presidents of the IGA are proposed by the Advisory Board and one is elected by members who vote during the IGA conference AGM.  The presidency is for two years, although this is often extended to a four year period of office by mutual agreement.  At each IGA conference AGM, offers to host future IGA conferences are invited so that the Association can plan ahead.  When considering such offers, the Executive Committee takes into consideration: suitability of location; support to be offered by the host university in terms of administration and financial contribution to the cost of running the conference; membership history of the potential host; cost of transport and residence for delegates.  Please click onto the links on the left for further information about the constitution of the IGA and its management structure.
