Union of International Associations
About UIA
The Union of International Associations (UIA) was founded in 1907 to collect data about various international organisations. The UIA aims to facilitate understanding between nations through non-governmental (NGO) and intergovernmental (IGO) collaborations by disseminating knowledge. Its services include providing detailed descriptions and information on upcoming events and promoting the exchange of ideas across borders to facilitate international cooperation.
The UIA's membership network within the meetings industry strengthens partnerships with stakeholders through exclusive access to their resources as part of its associate programmes. This organisation is a pivotal tool for comprehending and addressing issues transcending national boundaries, and it remains essential in pursuing better global governance practices.
Our partnership
The partnership between Amsterdam Convention Bureau (ACB) and UIA is an opportunity to tap into a wealth of knowledge about international organisations and upcoming events. Through this collaboration, we gain access to valuable industry data and resources from one of the world's leading sources for comprehensive intelligence in the meetings landscape.
Becoming a part of UIA has empowered ACB to forge stronger partnerships with stakeholders worldwide. This collaboration underscores our commitment to building international cooperation and understanding through NGO and IGO collaborations. A highly valued membership in this network helps us promote intercultural dialogue and advance better governance practices globally.
