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
