About Us

The International Peatland Society (IPS) is an organisation of individual, corporate and institutional members dedicated to the responsible management and wise use of peatlands and peat. Currently the IPS has around 1400 individual and student members, as well as 200 corporate and institutional members from 33 countries.

These include 16 national committees and three commissions, plus numerous expert groups involved in different activities related to peat and peatlands, mires, bogs, fens and tropical peat swamp forests. We serve all those involved in peatlands and peat through the promotion, gathering, exchange and communication of knowledge and experience, by means of events, publications and projects which address key issues.
