Formal partnership agreements

The Convention supports numerous collaborations with formal written and signed agreements. These may take the form of an exchange of signed letters, a formal Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) or Memorandum of Cooperation (MOC), or a Joint Work Plan (JWP).

All these agreements can be viewed in the library here. In addition, the list below links directly to the currently active agreements. In some cases these are transcribed copies of the originals.
