On 15 October 2025, the International Association of Schools and Institutes of Administration (IASIA) elected Professor Liezel Lues, from the University of the Free State (South Africa), as its new President for the 2025–2028 term. The election also brought forward a new Board of Management, representing institutions from all world regions and reaffirming IASIA’s truly global and inclusive character.

The IASIA 2025 Annual Conference took place in Mexico City, Mexico, from October 13 to 17, 2025, under the theme "Shaping the Future of Governance: Transforming Mindsets, Enhancing Skills, and Expanding Knowledge." Organized in close collaboration with the National Institute of Public Administration (INAP) of Mexico, the event welcomed over 200 participants from around the world, marking the return of an IIAS event to Mexico more than 50 years after the Institute’s first conference outside Europe.

We are excited to announce that registration for the IASIA 2025 Annual Conference is now open!
