IACC Governance Structure
The IACC Council
The IACC Council is the governing body of the IACC series. It is their duty to select the IACC dates and host country as well as overseeing the development of the main theme and programme of each Conference. Through their experience and leadership, the Council contributes greatly to the success of every IACC.
The Council is composed of nine members demonstrating high competence, experience, integrity and dedication to the fight against corruption. Council members serve in their personal capacity only. The Transparency International (TI) Board of Directors with due regard to institutional, professional, and geographic diversity as well as gender and age balance appoint the Chair and four Council members.
The other four Council members are invited to become members by the five members already appointed by the TI Board of Directors. Once convened, the IACC Council elects a Vice-Chair from among their members. Council members serve a term of up to six years, which in principle corresponds to three IACC cycles.

Choosing the Host Country
As Secretariat to the IACC Council, the governing body of the Conference series, Transparency International Secretariat (TI-S) in Berlin explores the possibility of hosting an IACC with interested members of the TI movement (National Chapter, National Contact Point, Individual Member) and the governments of their respective countries.
There is an open and competitive selection process for those interested: Typically, the TI representative in the country would initiate correspondence with the government to explore the interest in hosting the IACC. Traditionally, the future IACC host country shall be announced at the closing ceremony of the upcoming IACC.
Interested governments shall provide a letter of intention to TI-S to start the process of negotiation. After evaluating the conditions that are offered, this process should continue with a formal proposal by the potential host country, stemming from the Head of State, the Prime Minister or President. The letter should be signed by the Head of a government ministry, or entity with a clear mandate to curb corruption or boost transparency in the country. The final decision on accepting the host country is made by the IACC Council.
At the 18th IACC in Copenhagen last year we announced that the 19th IACC will be held in Seoul, Korea in 2020. We are now seeking a host country for the 20th IACC to be held in 2022.

IACC Agreements with the Host Country
Each edition of the IACC is based in a different region of the world. Once the host country has been selected, a formal commitment is drawn up in the form of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) or an official Agreement, these include a series of annexes which are available upon request.
