Chapters

INTBAU’s 40 Chapters give the charity its global structure. Our Chapters initiate programmes that respond to their local contexts, and that champion the essential role of tradition in the built environment. The INTBAU College of Chapters meets regularly and discusses the future projects of the charity.

To learn more about our Chapters or to contact a specific member of the College of Chapters, please refer to the Chapter pages below.
