The International Association of Egyptologists (IAE) (German: Internationale Ägyptologen-Verband; French: Association Internationale des Égyptologues; Arabic: الرابطة الدولية لعلماء الآثار المصرية) is the international professional association of Egyptologists. The association is a non-profit organization for the advancement of Egyptology. The IAE was founded in Copenhagen (Denmark) in 1947.
Within the framework of the association, questions relating to Egyptological studies are discussed. The association promotes the study of Egyptology in all its aspects on an international level.[1]
The IAE supports projects that are important for the scientific development of Egyptology and the international cooperation of Egyptologists. It also acts as an intermediary in providing funding and human resources for such projects.
The association promotes the understanding of Egyptology among the general public by establishing contacts with support associations and other relevant institutions, and maintaining relationships with them.
The IAE is committed to preserving the cultural and historical heritage of the ancient inhabitants of the Nile Valley, specifically, the heritage of Ancient Egypt and the Sudan.
