Affiliated Society Member

We welcome affiliations with IPC societies around the world that share our vision.

What is International Affiliated Society Membership? 

Infection prevention and control (IPC) requires a global effort to protect populations from avoidable infections.  Affiliation connects IPS to other societies by sharing our newsletters, exchanging ideas and through association, building a stronger international network of infection prevention and control professionals. 

Terms

Each affiliation will be reviewed after two years to see whether it should continue. If the terms of the affiliation are not respected, IPS reserves the right to revoke the affiliation.

Eligibility

Eligible organisations for International Affiliated Society include new and established infection prevention societies.
