What Region am I in?
Your Region is determined by where you live, not by the location of your institution or where you travel for work.
The eight regions are based on the World Bank regional structure, so some country groupings have changed from the regional structure International ACAC previously utilized. Please confirm which region you live in, and therefore which region you will be representing with your vote.
See a list of countries by region, as well as an alphabetized list of countries and their respective regions:
