In March 2025, the International ACAC membership approved the establishment of a Regional Council composed of eight Regional Representatives, marking an exciting step toward deepening member engagement and strengthening our global network. Creating the Regional Council accomplishes two goals: to bring deliberate regional representation to the leadership structure of the Association and to widen member participation in leadership roles, by removing the need for voting membership for members to run or vote for these positions.

Confirm Your Region
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.
Please note that your region is determined by your place of residence, not by the location of your institution or organization, or where you travel for work.
