ComSoc Sister Chapter Program 2023

ComSoc has a global presence, encompassing over 200 professional and student Chapters, which are categorized into four regions: North America Regions 1-7, Europe/Middle East/Africa Region 8, Latin America Region 9, and Asia/Pacific Region 10. These local chapters provide a platform for members to connect, exchange ideas, attend lectures and events, and bolster their personal and professional growth through volunteer opportunities.

During the “IEEE Global Communications” Conference held in Brazil from December 4 to 8, 2022, all participating chapters took part in the following sessions:

• Chapter Funding
• Internet for All
• Sister Chapters Program and Student Branch Chapter Matching
• Distinguished Lecturers
• Membership Development Cycle (Terminator/Half Year Dues, Student Elevation Cycle, Senior Member Elevation).

This event served as a catalyst for ten chapters to collaborate, unite, and become part of the Sister Chapter Program Pilot Project for 2023. This initiative establishes a formal partnership, akin to a sisterhood, between at least four ComSoc chapters originating from different countries or regions, characterized by diverse cultural and geographical backgrounds. This partnership includes, wherever feasible, the inclusion of a local Student Branch Chapter.
