Governing documents
In July 2010, the ICCA Consortium was registered as a non-profit association under the Swiss Civil Code. The founding General Assembly approved the Statutes as the association’s highest governance document. The General Assembly has approved revisions to the Statutes as needed since then, as well as a number of other non-statutory policies and procedures.
In addition, the Manifesto for territories of life was approved on 28 June 2023 at the 19th General Assembly. The 2024-2028 Strategic Plan was approved as a ‘working version’ by the Council on 12 October 2023 and is expected to be tabled for formal approval by the General Assembly in mid-2024.
