Australasian Member Societies

The Australasian Region of the ISSMGE comprises two Member Societies, Australia and New Zealand, and also represents the activities of the Society in the South Pacific. There is extensive geotechnical engineering activity in Papua New Guinea, Fiji and New Caledonia, but without any formal member societies or other coordinated associations.
