IIMA has recently revised its committee structure. In addition to its two principal committees, Communications and Technical, a third Sustainability committee is being added. All committees are open to all IIMA members and play an important role in the achievement of IIMA's objectives and aim to create value for members as well as external stakeholders through their activities.
In addition, we have 2 taskforces, that sit under the guidance of the Communications committee to help with specific aspects of the organisation – Membership & Statistics.
Communications Committee
- promoting the use of ore-based metallics in the steelmaking and foundry industries through information and education
- communicating appropriate messages to stakeholders via the website, media, workshops, conference presentations, etc.
- contributing to the planning of IIMA members’ meetings in terms of locations, programme themes and content, etc.
