(a) South Asia;
(b) Southeast Asia;
(c) Central Asia;
(d) Pacific Region;

The Secretariat's Executive Director is also an Ex-officio member. The IC, in consultation with the members of each sub-region, is tasked to discuss the course of action to be taken by Forum as a network. The membership of sub-regions are reviewed and assessed. Status of membership of organizations in the sub-regions will depend on the level of its involvement in the activities done by the sub-region and Forum.
