The outline of ICL and the relationship of ICL, IPL and Research Centre on Landslides (RCL) are illustrated in Figures 1 and 2. Figure 1 shows the structure of ICL. ICL members come from one of four categories of intergovernmental organizations, non-governmental organizations, governmental and public organizations, and other organizations and entities. Members are those organizations that support the objectives of ICL intellectually, practically and financially. Each Member sends a representative to the Board of Representatives (BOR), which has full power for all decision of the consortium. Figure 2 shows the relationship of ICL, IPL and the Research Centre on Landslides (RCL). ICL consists of four categories of Members and receives special support from UNESCO, WMO, FAO, UN/ISDR, and governmental bodies such as Japan, USA, Italy, Canada and Norway (as of January 2003). The Research Centre on Landslides is to be established in Kyoto, Japan, with possible satellite centers elsewhere.
