SCAR’s policy and strategy is formulated by its members through their appointed delegates. Full members appoint two Delegates, a Permanent and an Alternate Delegate. Associate Members (marked *) appoint one Delegate. Union Members also appoint one Delegate.
Delegates meet every two years to discuss past accomplishments and future plans, and make decisions on which research areas to cover, budget allocations, interactions with the Antarctic Treaty System and other bodies, and partnerships with other organizations.
Next SCAR Delegates Meeting:
26-28 August 2024 – Punta Arenas, Chile
