The member-societies of the IARU<\/span> participate in its governance in two ways: through attendance at the conference of their regional organization and through voting on proposals circulated by electronic mail by the Administrative Council.<\/p>\n

In each of the three IARU<\/span> regions the regional conference is the ultimate authority. At a regional conference, typically held every three years in each of the three regions on a rotating basis, the dues are set, a budget is adopted, and an executive committee is elected to administer the affairs of the region until the next conference. The conferences also consider proposals and recommendations from the member-societies as well as from committees and working groups.<\/p>\n

Coordination among the three regions and adoption of overall IARU<\/span> policy is done by the Administrative Council, made up of the three global IARU<\/span> officers (President, Vice President, and Secretary) and two representatives from each of the three regional organizations.<\/p>\n

The day-to-day administration of IARU<\/span> affairs is a responsibility of the International Secretariat.<\/p>\n

The framework for global governance is in the IARU<\/span> Constitution<\/a><\/p>\n

IARU<\/span> Region 2 is governed by its own Constitution, Bylaws and Standard Operating Procedures.<\/p>\n
