IMGA SUB-COMMITTEES

IMGA Sub-Committees

Sub-Committees prepare recommendations in their areas of special interest for improvements to the management of IMGA, but they have to be approved by the member organisations either at the AGM or through e-mail voting before they can be implemented.

Sub-Committees are kept small (ideally five or six people). Members of the sub-committees are selected on the basis of the skills they can bring to the group and on their geographic location, aiming to get a range of ideas and opinions from around the world.
