Under the agreement, inter alia, the organisations will exchange information, share publications and help promote the ethical development of the PR profession.
“As the world’s largest media intelligence and insights professional body we are thoroughly looking forward to this co-operation,” said AMEC Global MD Johna Burke.
“We're delighted to have AMEC as part of our global family of professionals. Their work around measurement and evaluation in communications has been nothing less than ground-breaking. The agreement between both our associations will be a strong added value for all our members. The IPRA Board and I are already looking forward to collaborating with Johna Burke and her colleagues to put an end to AVE's and to further implement the measurement and evaluation framework in the public relations profession globally," comments IPRA President Philippe Borremans.
