title:How can I contribute information?

You may have information that you wish to make the UIA aware of, including but not limited to:

  • New international organizations
  • Conferences and meetings
  • Amendments or additions to current profiles

As the editors cannot possibly keep track of all the information available on international organizations however hard they try, any information of this kind is very welcome. You can submit new organizations and meetings for consideration via the following:

title:What are the sources of description information in the Yearbook?

Compiling information for the Yearbook involves a year-round process of research and editing. Proofs of organization descriptions are sent out by post, email and fax for the organizations themselves to correct. The average response rate is 35%, ensuring highly reliable information. Priority is normally given to information received from the organizations themselves, and every effort is made by the editors to check this information against other sources.

title:How are international organizations and NGOs evaluated in the Yearbook?

The editorial intent is not to provide a "judgement" or "definition" of an organization, and priority is normally given to providing a profile in the words of the organization itself. Every effort is made by the editors to check this information against other sources. The information is at no time considered complete, rather it reflects a "work in progress".

title:massive ad campaign failure - Australia

In 2006, Tourism Australia spent 180 million dollars on a disastrous global campaign featuring the swimsuit model Lara Bingle, who posed the question: “So where the bloody hell are you?” The proper question, perhaps, would have been whether or not foreign standards authorities would allow the slogan at all. The United Kingdom, Australia’s third-largest tourist market after New Zealand and China, banned the ad for being vulgar, and tourism numbers from there and other target markets plunged.
