IUCN, the International Union for Conservation of Nature

 Membership to IUCN is open to States, Government agencies, Political or Economic integration organisations, and national and international non-governmental organisations. An organisation applying for membership to the Union must have as one of its central purposes the achievement of IUCN’s mission and must show a substantial record of activity in the conservation of nature and natural resources.

Individuals can become members of the six IUCN Commissions:
• The Species Survival Commission (SSC)
• World Commission on Protected Areas (WCPA)
• Commission on Environmental Law (CEL)
• Commission on Ecosystems Management (CEM)
• Commission on Education and Communication (CEC)
• Environment, Economics and Social Policy (CEESP)
 

The IUCN Member Application Form and Membership Information Pack describing the benefits of becoming an IUCN member and further information on the various IUCN membership categories and dues are available from the IUCN Regional Office for Oceania.
