	Union of International Associations: a profile
		It is hard enough for the international civil servant, or executive officer of an international N.G.O., to visualise clearly, as a whole and in perspective, the true shape and scale of international co-operation.
		International organisations may associate with the U.I.A. and make use of its services by the simple device of taking out a subscription to the monthly magazine "International Associations" and furnishing regular reports of their activities.
		Co-operation at the international level is rapidly ceasing to be the somewhat haphazard and disorganised affair that it used to be.

		The UIA is the world’s oldest, biggest and most comprehensive source of information on global civil society.
		Databases and publications cover many aspects of international organizations – their history, organization and meetings, and the problems and methods with which they work [more].
		The UIA was founded one hundred years ago, in 1907, by Henri La Fontaine (Nobel Peace Prize laureate of 1913), and Paul Otlet, a founding father of what is now called information science.

		It is ironic that associations of the disabled, of music lovers, of those with particular religious or philosophical beliefs, of obscure scientific specialities, of those concerned with unrecognized values or poorly recognized sports, and the like, should be required to demonstrate their political or economic value in order to justify their existence.
		But international communities may also acquire a more physical form when people from different countries choose (or are obliged) to live in the same area, as tends to be the case with some diplomatic ghettos or "foreign quarters", which may even be enclosed, as with the campus of an international university.
		Brussels, Union of International Associations, 1976, pp 168-205.

	Union of International Associations -- Virtual Organization: Paul Otlet's 100-year hypertext conundrum ?
		Of course, as it was formally created, the UIA indeed appeared to be the first effort to coordinate the actions of the existing international organizations of the nascent "international community" -- as an "umbrella organization".
		The secret was effectively embodied in the name of the UIA (see another exploration of this at http://www.uia.org/uiaprof/namemean.htm) and in its statutory objectives -- that have remained fundamentally unchanged since its creation.
		For the UIA of the present, facing a challenging future in a turbulent knowledge-based society, it might be asked how these clues now suggest that an implicit virtual organization might emerge from the closet of explictness in which it has been so respectably entrapped over the years.

	Paul Otlet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		He founded the Institut de Documentation, the Mundaneum, and the still active Union of International Associations to bring his theories into practice.
		Otlet was also a tireless idealist and peace activist, pushing internationalist political ideas that were embodied in the League of Nations, to which his partner Henri La Fontaine contributed directly.

		Another even larger and more grand congress of the international associations was held in 1913 and planning for a third in 1915 was interrupted by the War.
		After the War all of the enterprises associated with the Office and Institute of Bibliography were brought together as planned in the left wing of the Palais du Cinquantenaire with the other collections of the Palais Mondial.
		Duyvis became secretary of an International Committee for the Decimal Classification to spearhead this revision.

		This is in contrast to studies at the national and regional level (notably in the European Union).
		These will also be essential in order to move beyond the conceptual tunnel vision through which issues tend to be managed in isolation -- if the international community is to deal with the complexes of issues now characteristic of a complex society and the challenges of cross-sectoral strategic demands.
		A recent estimate by the UIA showed that of 6,250 intergovernmental bodies, 12 percent had web access and 20 percent had e-mail access.

	International Organization Networks: a complementary perspective
		Brussels, Union of International Associations, 1984, pp 121-130
		It is no exaggeration to state that the number of interlinked international organization units is such that no one has a clear overview or understanding of how the complex functions (if at all, as some would have it).
		Systems tend to be associated with imposed structures or patterns (even if limited to the choice of the system boundary), whereas networks tend to be associated with emergent structures or patterns.

		International Union of Angiology: scientific society for the advancement of research in angiology.
		The Union is a great scientific Society, not in competition with other societies as proved during the congress in Rome where a lot of scientific Societies organized joint sessions with the IUA.
		The most important change is probably the creation of a new membership for national and international Associate Societies, for which one delegate is member of the Administrative Board of the IUA with a voting right, and the creation of a Multinational Chapter including other international societies.

		Note that it would be for the user to indicate how isomorphic the patterns need to be before being considered as matches to be presented for inspection.
		Such a database may be used to encourage experiments in discovering unforeseen patterns and patterning principles -- ideally a role for mathematics and the classification sciences.
		The challenge is however to render such patterns meaningfully through the metaphoric aspects of the database and the associations which the user finds comprehensible.

		Your report does not analyze the blow by blow communication processes associated with access and fails to ask whether that communication could not be achieved more (cost) effectively by more NGOs over a longer period by other means -- which might even be more acceptable to delegates and appreciated by their own secretariats.
		I question the assumption that handing out documents, making a presentation, or shaking hands with a VIP is necessarily the only way forward for the 1000-2000 NGOs encouraged to aspire to this mode by the recommendations in your report.
		It is how these are to be handled creatively which are the issues for the future.
