Find a Local SSIT Chapter

SSIT welcomes all persons interested in the Impact of Technology on Society.

Global map of IEEE Regions, chapters are local groups world wide

We have local groups, called chapters. There is a list below, and also you can find these via IEEE’s regional map structure.

SSIT is currently represented internationally by 30 Chapters/Joint Chapters spanning 16 countries as listed below. “Chapters” are local groups with an interest in a specific IEEE Society, such as the Society on Social Implications of Technology (SSIT). A chapter can be “stand alone” (formed with 12 or more interested members) or can be a “joint chapter” with another or several other IEEE Societies.

To contact a Chapter, either send an email to the Chapter Chair by clicking on that person’s name, or visit the Chapter’s website/webpage by clicking on the Chapter name (note: currently only a few Chapters have their own website or webpage).

The information on this page is based on content published in IEEE Rosters as at 02 April 2024.
