This category of membership was created to recognise those who are making significant contributions to civil society in Wales in their fields of expertise.

Fellows of the IWA want to do more than simply keep abreast of what is going on in Wales.

They place a high value on its work in strengthening Welsh civil society and have expertise to contribute to the IWA and its work in helping Wales to flourish.

They believe strongly in helping the IWA to maintain its independence.
