Union of International Associations Web Site
*****************************************************************
I had an opportunity today to review the Union of International
Associations (UIA) web site. For list members with interests in
the international arena, it appears to offer an unusually large
number of useful links. To provide just one example, the web site
provides information on "over 40,000 organizations, with 104,000
links."
I am not familiar with the activities of the organization, so let
me simply note an introductory statement presented on its welcome
page. "The Union of International Associations, a nonprofit
clearing house for information on over 20,000 international
organizations and constituencies, has been a pioneer in the
provision of information on international organizations and their
global challenges since its foundation in 1910."
The address: http://www.uia.org/
The UIA email address: mailto:uia@uia.be
The pointer to the UIA web site was brought to my attention by
Joel Fischer at UIA. List members may want to contact him if they
would like more information about the web site and/or UIA.
(Apologies in advance to Mr. Fischer if he is suddenly inundated
with inquiries.)
