From Re.ViCa

The Irish Universities’ Association (IUA) is the representative body of the heads of the seven Irish universities (that is, those in the Republic of Ireland).

It is based at Merrion Square, Dublin. The IUA is a non-profit making body. It was created in the late 1970s as the Conference of Heads of Irish Universities (CHIU) and was formally incorporated in 1997 with charitable status and adopted its current name in 2005.

The mission of the IUA is to collectively formulate and pursue policies which advance education and research in the universities of the Republic of Ireland.

The IUA Council consists of the presidents/provosts of each college

In addition there are four standing groups: Financial, Research, Registrar and Secretaries.
