Regional Committees

Regional Committees are composed of the elected Council Members from the region, the host of the Regional Coordination Unit, and any other member as elected by regional assemblies. Regional Committee members are nominated for a maximum of one term, which expires at the following AoM (every three years). Ex-officio members of each regional steering committee include a representative of the host organisation, and the ILC global and regional director for that region.
