IGF Members

Members of the International Go Federation.

Information sourced from the IGS [ext] site in 2021.

See the relevant pages on [ext] Africa, [ext] the Americas, [ext] Asia, [ext] Europe and [ext] Oceania.

Note that the IGF pages have links to the association / federation websites (though not in all cases).

Take note also that although this page is aliased as List of Associations and List of Federations, it's not a list of all Go groups that call themselves associations or federations.

The Asian countries of Armenia, Israel and Kazakhstan are all listed by the IGF as European members. Turkey and Azerbaijan are also identified as European.

The Kansai Ki-in is not affiliated to the International Go Federation. That could be due to the IGF's foundation in Tokyo and presumable links to the Nihon Ki-in, or more prosaically because the IGF might only be allowing one federation of each country to join, hence why Go Federation Russia isn't a member.

It's not clear whether the "Chinese Taipei Go Association" is a separate organisation created for international sport or just a diplomatic name for the Taiwan Qiyuan.
