International Radiation Protection Association

International Radiation Protection Association

Abbreviation	IRPA
Formation	19 June 1965
Region served	Global
President	Bernard le Guen
Vice-President	Christopher Clement
Website	www.irpa.net

The International Radiation Protection Association (IRPA) is an independent non-profit association of national and regional radiation protection societies, and its mission is to advance radiation protection throughout the world. It is the international professional association for radiation protection.^[1]

IRPA is recognized by the IAEA as a Non Governmental Organization (NGO) and is an observer on the IAEA Radiation Safety Standards Committee (RASSC).^[2]

IRPA was formed on June 19, 1965, at a meeting in Los Angeles; stimulated by the desire of radiation protection professionals to have a world-wide body. Membership includes 50 Associate Societies covering 65 countries, totaling approximately 18,000 individual members.^[3]^[4]

Structure

The General Assembly, made up of representatives from the Associate Societies, is the representative body of the Association. It delegates authority to the Executive Council for the efficient administration of the affairs of the Association.

Specific duties are carried out by IRPA Commissions, Committees, Task Groups and Working Groups:

Commission on Publications
Societies Admission and Development Committee
International Congress Organising Committee
International Congress Programme Committee
Montreal Fund Committee
Radiation Protection Strategy and Practice Committee
Regional Congresses Co-ordinating Committee
Rules Committee
Sievert Award Committee
Task Group on Security of Radioactive Sources
Task Group on Public Understanding of Radiation Risk
Working Group on Radiation Protection Certification and Qualification
