National Delegates
Each member association has the right to nominate a delegate to each of
the ten technical commissions.
The contact information of national delegates is updated by the FIG
office. Any changes in contact information should be sent to the
FIG Office.
Guideline to FIG members and their commission delegates
The responsibilities and benefits of a national delegate are described
in the
Internal Rules.
The purpose of these guidelines is to help ensure that the full benefit
of FIG membership is passed down to all the individual members of
associations or other organisations that are members of the Federation.
To ensure that individual members are kept fully informed of and have
an opportunity to provide input to the work of FIG to the work of FIG and
its commissions, FIG recommends that:
FIG members should support, or encourage others to support, the
attendance of national commission delegates at FIG congresses and annual
FIG working weeks (including annual commission delegate meetings and
technical symposia), regional conferences and other symposia organised by
the commissions FIG members and national commission delegates should
consider establishing networks within their countries to communicate
information and obtain feedback national commission delegates should be
actively involved in commission activities, including responding to
questionnaires and correspondence and identifying topics and authors of
papers for commission symposia and FIG events FIG members should seek and
encourage funding support to enable national commission delegates to
attend FIG activities, including commission meetings national commission
delegates should write at least one annual report for publication in a
local newsletter or technical journal for dissemination to individual
members of their association or organisation.
