With board members spanning 5 continents, our leadership brings together perspectives from across the Information Architecture community worldwide. This global, community-driven governance ensures WIAA's initiatives remain relevant and accessible to practitioners across different cultures, contexts, and career stages. Board members often begin their WIAA journey as local World IA Day organizers, bringing valuable insights from their regional communities to our global initiatives. ## Current Global Board The global board refreshes from year to year. See [Past Leadership](/past-leadership.md) for the archive of global board members. {% content-ref url="/pages/IHfisWQAHpeDydrfwHYC" %} [2024-2025 Board](/about-the-board/2024-2025-board.md) {% endcontent-ref %} ## Join the Board of Directors We’re always looking for new perspectives and people to join the board!

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://about.worldiaday.org/about-the-board.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
