19th International Amateur Radio Union
Region 3 Conference 2024
The IARU Region 3 Conference is held every 3 years. This year is the 19th International Amateur Radio Union Conference
and is being held from 4 November 2024 to 8 November 2024 in Bangkok Thailand.
The host society is the Radio Amateur Society of Thailand under The Royal Patronage of His Majesty The King of Thailand.
The Wireless Institute of Australia as the peak body representing Amateur Radio in Australia is a member society of
the International Amateur Radio Union. There are 39 member societies of the IARU Region 3.
Each member society is entitled to send one delegate to the triennial conference along with observers.
This year we are very grateful that Mr Peter Young VK3MV has agreed to be the nominated delegate to the conference.
It was back on the 12th April 1968, representatives from a number of countries within this part of the world,
met in Sydney to establish a regional arm for the International Amateur Radio Union - IARU Region 3.
This was forty-three years after the establishment of the IARU itself.
The purpose of the IARU Region 3 is:
‘to promote, represent and advance in whatsoever manner IARU Region 3 thinks fit, the interests of Radio Amateurs in
all countries of Region 3 of the International Telecommunications Union (and without limiting the generality of the foregoing);
by the furtherance of the objects of the International Amateur Radio Union and having regard to the special interest of
radio amateurs in Asia and Oceania which interests are to protect and enhance radio amateur privileges in all of the countries in the Region;
to encourage an awareness of the value of radio amateurs by the administrations of all the countries in the Region;
to educate and encourage potential radio amateurs in all of the countries of the Region;
to represent radio amateurs both nationally and internationally;
to protect and retain amateur radio frequency allocation as frequencies allocated for the sole use of radio amateurs;
provided always shall exercise its powers in support of IARU and not in substitution for the exercise of power by IARU.â€Ö
Every radio amateur needs the IARU!
