On its own, IAALD cannot serve the needs of every agricultural information specialist. Thus, effective collaboration with other associations and groups is an important part of our strategy. This collaboration can be on a regional, linguistic, national, or thematic basis.

IAALD has relationships with the following types of professional associations: 1) regional and country ‘chapters’ that are part of IAALD, 2) independent regional and thematic agricultural information associations, 3) IT in agriculture networks and federations, and 4) related professional associations.

Regional and Country Chapters of IAALD:
