Being an IAIA member has been amazing so far! One of the things I like most is the connection and networking that is happening in IAIA. Before being a member, I had a national network — people from the same country and the same field that I was working with. But being an IAIA member has allowed me to meet people from different countries, people from different fields, people working in impact assessment but worldwide.

Membership has helped bridge the gap between key practitioners in the industry -- it has leveled the playing field and allowed me to have direct access to the practitioners and receive guidance and learn from other experts in the field. The value within this forum is immense!

For me IAIA is like a square—it’s like a place. It can be virtual or physical. It’s a great place to meet colleagues or come discuss and exchange ideas and bring issues we are passionate about forward. So it’s very valuable.

Being a member of IAIA has given me the opportunity to learn from other professionals working in different parts of the world. Also being a member gives you the opportunity to be connected through a platform called IAIA Hub, so you can share your ideas and also learn from each other. It's very valuable.

Being a part of IAIA is so much more than just a community – it’s like being a part of a family. You have the opportunity to meet and interface with technical experts and very experienced practitioners, but you also get to hear local challenges and understand projects that have been implemented – what's worked and what hasn't worked. It's so valuable, refreshing, and encouraging.

Membership FAQs

IAIA membership is open to all individuals interested in impact assessment. The payment of annual dues is required. There is no formal review or vetting process for individual members, so membership in IAIA does not imply any professional certification or endorsement of an individual’s qualifications or expertise. However, IAIA is deeply committed to ethical and professional practice in all its operations and expects the same from its members. As such, IAIA encourages its members to make a personal pledge of commitment to a professional Code of Conduct.

Impact Assessment and Project Appraisal (IAPA) is an international peer-reviewed journal and is the official publication of IAIA, and current IAIA members get full access to all IAPA articles via an electronic subscription. 

Published six times per year, IAPA contains a variety of peer-reviewed research articles, letters, and book reviews of recently published titles. IAPA provides a one-source link to the latest ideas in the wide-ranging field of impact assessment.

Want to see for yourself? Peruse several open-access articles on the publisher's website, and then join IAIA for all the rest!

Upload (or email) a transcript, student ID, letter from an administrative professional, or a diploma from within the past 12 months. Recent graduates are welcome to join IAIA as student members within one year of graduation.

You do not need to be a member of IAIA to attend annual conferences, events, and other special meetings (but members DO receive a hefty discounted rate for all events!).

Only current IAIA members get full access to IAIA's professional online community, IAIA Hub. There members can post and contribute to discussions and announcements, get involved in special-interest Section groups, and network with other IAIA members.
