- Publication of regular Newsletters and other occasional publications for members
- Arrangement and organisation of a biennial conference
- Networking with scientists at the global level via international geographical forums
- Encouragement of scientists of international standing to visit southern Africa
- Organisation of workshops, lectures and other appropriate activities at national and regional level.
