the natural and social sciences. This enables consultation and a common approach in relations with the UN system and other bodies. Other intergovernmental bodies IUCN has maintained close links with the Council of Europe and has been involved in many of its working committees and meetings. Links have also been maintained with the Organization of African Unity, the Organization of American States and the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development. Active contacts have continued with the ICSU, Special Committee for the International Biological Programme (SCIBP) and the Scientific Committee on Problems of the Environment (SCOPE). Other organizations Liaison has been maintained with various international non-govern mental organizations throughout the world having an interest in various aspects of the environment. Among them are the Commission Internationale pour la Protection de la Region Alpine, the International Association on Water Pollution Research, the Conseil International de la Chasse, the Fauna Preservation Society, the International Federation of Landscape Architects, the International Planned Parenthood Federation, the International Youth Federation, and the Inter-Parliamentary Association. Close links have also been maintained with many national institutions and organizations including, in the United States of America, the Council on Environmental Quality, the Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife, and the National Park Service of the Department of the Interior, the Conservation Foundation and the Smithsonian Institution; and, in the United Kingdom, with the Nature Conservancy. Conferences and meetings IUCN sponsors and participates in a large number of meetings. These constitute the forums where the statutory and normal business of the Union is conducted, and where the work of conservation - in all its forms and aspects - is planned, organized, and directed. Meetings serve a variety of other useful purposes, principally providing opportunities for the exchange of information, the development of ideas, and the promotion of wider acceptance of the basic principles of good environmental management. 93
