The UWIAA
The UWI Alumni Association (UWIAA) is one of the Authorities of the University and was established by the University’s Charter, Statutes and Ordinances. The UWIAA is allocated three seats on the Council of the University every year: – an Alumnus Representative and two other Council Representatives. It functions through Chapters located in the various Caribbean countries, as well as countries outside the region.
The primary purpose of the UWIAA Chapters is to:
- foster and maintain contact among graduates of the University
- encourage a closer bond of affinity and commitment to the University
- engage in fundraising and other activities to enhance the development of the University
The Alumni Relations arm of the Institutional Advancement Division is the central link between the UWIAA Chapters of the three campuses and the twelve academic centres (UWI 12). Alumni Relations’ principal responsibility is to build relationships. The Alumni Relations arm of the IAD works with and through the UWIAA Chapters, Campus Alumni Offices and Resident Tutors to build relationships with alumni and students (our future alumni). The UWIAA Chapter Presidents report to the IAD on activities at the annual Central Executive Meeting which is held every April.
