Its reach and productivity is supported by around 15,000 volunteer experts across six thematic IUCN Commissions and over 1,000 paid staff in 45 offices around the world. These Constituents of IUCN work together in more than 160 countries to achieve the common IUCN Vision and Mission under IUCN s One Programme approach. The Value and Benefits of IUCN Membership include: INFLUENCE - IUCN's ever-growing influence is a result of working with its Members. The Union, driven by its Mission, reflects the diverse needs of its vast membership and its commitment to the conservation and sustainable use of the Earth's Resources. It is the key advisory body to UNESCO on World Heritage and has a major role in the implementation of the Convention on Biological Diversity. COLLECTIVE VOICE - Through IUCN, members become part of a collective and global voice on important current issues. The Union convenes the quadrennial World Conservation Congress and global meetings such as the decadal World Parks Congress, recently held in Sydney in PLACING YOUR WORK ON AN INTERNATIONAL STAGE - IUCN participation in international fora, such as the Convention on Biological Diversity, Rio+20, UNFCCC, the four yearly World Conservation Congresses and the ten yearly World Parks Congresses create environments where your organisation can reach an international audience. IUCN also generates many publications that can carry your best practice examples. PARTNERSHIPS & NETWORKS - Members are able to develop partnerships by being part of an alliance of governments and NGOs. Members also have the possibility to expand their networks through international contacts with the Union's staff, experts and other members. Members can strengthen their credibility and capacity through their association with a respected conservation alliance of key scientists, decision-makers and managers. COMMISSIONS - Individuals can strengthen their involvement and benefits from IUCN by becoming members of the six IUCN Commissions of global experts. These are the World Commission on Protected Areas (WCPA), World Commission on Environmental Law (WCEL), Commission on Education and Communication (CEC), Species Survival Commission (SSC), Commission on Environmental, Economic and Social Policy (CEESP) and Commission on Ecosystem Management (CEM). Several of the Commissions are very active in Australia. ACIUCN Membership Brochure 2

6 (c) K. Zischka How to join the Australian network of IUCN Becoming a Member of the Australian National Committee The Australian National Committee for IUCN is principally composed of Australian based IUCN Member agencies/organisations. Once your agency/organisation has applied for IUCN Membership and been approved by the IUCN Council, all Australian IUCN Members are automatically invited to become Members of ACIUCN. Membership dues ACIUCN is a small national committee which inline with IUCN Statutes and Regulations does not receive funding from IUCN and which relies on the financial support of ACIUCN Members and Associates who provide annual membership dues, partnerships and in-kind support. The ACIUCN dues paid by Members and Associates are a modest contribution and critical to supporting the Committee, allowing for the employment of a Director and facilitating the work of ACIUCN. Membership rates vary depending of the size and scope of an organisation/agency. Refer to Annex 1 for more information. Associate Status For agencies and organisations that have clear conservation objectives but which are unable to envisage full IUCN Membership, ACIUCN also offers a more limited Associate status. Associates are non-voting and do not enjoy the benefits of full IUCN Membership, however can remain associated with an international body and participate in meetings and events. This may be an interim option for your organisation, whilst you work towards full membership. Individuals who are members of IUCN Commissions, specialist groups and task forces may also become Associates. Associate application: A letter must be sent to the Chair of ACIUCN requesting consideration for Associate Status. For agencies/organisations the letter should contain the conservation purpose of the agency/organisation taken from the constitution and for individual applications the expert's background in conservation. The letter should be ed to the ACIUCN Chair at chair@aciucn.org.au and copied to the Director at katherine.zischka@aciucn.org.au. On acceptance by the ACIUCN Executive, the Associate status comes into force when the dues for the relevant year are paid. The Associate dues for 2016/17 are AUD 250 (see Annex 1). We look forward to welcoming you to the Australian IUCN network to participate as an active Member of the Australian National Committee. Please contact ACIUCN Director, Katherine Zischka at katherine.zischka@aciucn.org.au for further information on membership. ACIUCN Membership Brochure 6
