IAC Council
The Council is composed of 15-18 members, including the representative to UNESCO, and the non-voting honorary and administrative positions. Members of the Council must be individual members. They are elected for a six-year term by the individual members of the Academy. The Council decides the functions of its members according to its needs. Membership of Council, as far as possible, corresponds to the various geographical regions represented in the Academy. |
The newest members of the Council were officially announced via Bulletin 135 in July 2020 – specifically new representatives of China, Switzerland, and Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. The new representative for South Korea will be announced shortly. |
