The organisation is unique in its diversity: it unites Member States (mostly represented by the Ministry responsible for wildlife management and conservation), Universities, organizations engaged in hunting, as well as individuals such as private members and scientific experts from 84 countries.
Another strength of the CIC is its federal structure, consisting of 37 National Delegations that are active on local level while they support the 3 Divisions - Policy and Law, Applied Science and Culture -, acting beyond political boundaries. With the participation of CIC experts from all parts of the world these Divisions address technical issues, undertake projects and develop recommendations within their areas of specialization: from certain species to environmental issues as well as cultural heritage.
The administrative organs of the CIC consist of the General Assembly, the Council and the Executive Committee. The legal seat is located in Vienna, Austria and the Headquarters operates in Budakeszi, Hungary under the supervision of the Director General. The official languages are English, French and German. The resources of the CIC come from the membership dues and from sponsoring.
