Sites of International Whaling Commission annual meetings

Members of the International Whaling Commission have met every year since 1949 (the IWC was founded in December 1947), in addition to having occasional intersessional 'special meetings' (these are not 'annual meetings').

In recent years, the meetings have attracted international media attention due to the growth of the anti-whaling movement.
