Six global mobility and relocation associations have announced the formation of a new incorporated entity – The Coalition for Associations in Global Mobility.

Six global mobility and relocation associations: the Canadian Employee Relocation Council (CERC); Corporate Housing Providers Association (CHPA); European Relocation Association (EuRA); FIDI Global Alliance; International Association of Movers (IAM); and Worldwide ERC (WERC), have announced the formation of a new incorporated entity – The Coalition for Associations in Global Mobility (the Coalition) – to facilitate further collaboration and engagement around major issues impacting employment-based global mobility and relocation.

The launch of the Coalition represents an evolution of the Coalition of Greener Mobility founded by the six associations in 2022 to engage around the advancement of environmental sustainability in talent mobility and expands the ability to, and platform for, collaboratively addressing a broader range of industry challenges worldwide.

The Coalition objectives are:

• to harness the collective power of its member associations to address and seek to solve the challenges facing the global mobility and relocation industry;

• to provide a structured forum for dialogue, cooperation, and collaboration on issues to amplify the individual efforts of its member associations; and

• to provide leadership and tools to its member associations in areas of mutual interest, such as research, education, and advocacy.

The Coalition will provide additional not-for-profit associations with the opportunity to join as members.

The Board of Directors is: Stephen Cryne (Chairman), President and Chief Executive Officer, CERC; Nick Estrada, CAE, CMP Chief Executive Officer, CHPA;  Brian Limperopulos, CAE President, IAM; Anupam Singhal, President & Chief Executive Officer, WERC;  Jesse van Sas, Secretary General, FIDI Global Alliance; and Tad Zurlinden, Chief Executive Officer, EuRA.
