Announcement of Congress

Over the 20th century, the IARF organised a congress of its members every four years. The venue was allotted cyclically through our four major regions - East Asia, South Asia, North America, Europe/Middle East. The theme was dependent upon critical issues of the day.

The forthcoming 33rd World Congress is the third congress of this 21st century.

It will be held in Kochi (Cochin), capital of the south Indian state of Kerala, from 4th to 7th September, 2010.

The theme will be announced shortly. Registration will be available from the end of September.
