IUPAP goals when founded in 1922
• Promote international cooperation in physics• Sponsor suitable international meetings• Foster the publication of tables of physical
constants• Promote international agreements on the use
of symbols, units, nomenclature, and standards
• Foster free circulation of scientists• Encourage research and education in physics

IUPAP• Members: Physics communities in
countries• Liaison Committees connect these
physicists to IUPAP• Governed by “General Assembly”
which meets every 3 years• 18 Commissions that sponsor
conferences on different subfields
