About Our
Regions
AAR pursues its mission by sustaining accessible regional intellectual networks to serve members where they live and work, and to respond to local publics and concerns. Regional meetings of the Academy often incorporate patterns of organization and presentation similar to those followed at the Academy-wide meetings, while also offering unique and distinct opportunities for members.
