XXVI. IUGG General Assembly

  • 22. June - 02. July 2015
  • Prague Congress Centre, Prague
  • Professional Congress Organiser - PCO
  • Participants: 5000

The congress is regularly attended by up to 5,000 experts and top scientists from hundreds of countries, which are united by the study of Earth and its physical, chemical and mathematical properties, including its environment in space.

The union unites 8 international associations: International Association of Cryospheric Sciences (IACS), the International Association of Geodesy (IAG), the International Association of Seismology and Physics of the Earth's interior (IASPEI), International Association of Volcanology and Chemistry of the Earth's Interior (IAVCEI), International Association of Geomagnetism and Aeronomy (IAGA), the International Association of Meteorology and Atmospheric Sciences (IAMAS), the International Association of Hydrological Sciences (IAHS) and the International Association for the Physical Sciences of the Ocean (IAPSO). In addition, the coordinated research also involves another six interdisciplinary non-governmental orgnizations.

Interpenetration of these scientific specializations is the reason for the extraordinarily extensive scientific program. The congress will present an amazing 5,700 abstracts and research papers. This corresponds to the extreme length of the congress, the longest in the history of the Czech Republic. The total of 11 days will offer, in addition to 230 symposia, scientific meetings and seminars, panel discussions and organizational meetings.

As chairman of the Czech National Committee for Geodesy and Geophysics, I attended the 25th General Assembly of the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (IUGG) in Melbourne in 2011 where I presented a proposal for the possible organization of the next 26th General Assembly of IUGG in 2015 in Prague. Our proposal was chosen amongst tough competition from five other world cities and Prague was entrusted with organizing this prestigious world meeting of researchers in the fields of geoscience. During the presentation I was accompanied by Mr. Pavel Šušák, senior project manager at C-IN, which as a professional congress organizer coordinated the entire the event.  

Later, as Chairman of the Organising Committee (LOC), I continued to collaborate with a number of staff from C-IN who demonstrated high professionalism and significantly contributed to the flawless running of the conference. I would like to point out that the 26th General Assembly of IUGG in Prague was highly rated, even from the point of view of financial contribution from the city of Prague in terms of congress tourism, which was evaluated by the mayor of Prague, MD. B. Svoboda, in 2012 as the best event scheduled for 2015. The participation of nearly 4,500 leading scientists from around the world, presenting hundreds of scientific papers and extensive discussions exceeded expectations. There is no doubt that the company C-IN showed great organizational skills and ensured the excellent running of the entire course of the event.

Growing your Association´s membership base: Communication is key

It goes without saying that the membership curve grows faster if the association holds a congress in that given year. Discounted registration fees and other benefits are an easy attraction. But what if the conference is held every two or even three years? The expectations for the number of members are logically lower, but one should not simply disregard this as a non-congress year.
