I-INCE is the sponsor of the INTER-NOISE Series of International Congresses on Noise Control Engineering held annually in leading cities of the world. I-INCE co-sponsors symposia on specialized topics within the I-INCE field of interest. The quarterly magazine Noise/News International, reaching more than five thousand specialists within the I-INCE field of interest around the world, is jointly published by I-INCE and the Institute of Noise Control Engineering of the USA (INCE/USA). In 1992, 1-INCE instituted a program to undertake technical initiatives on critically-important issues of international concern within the I-INCE field of interest. This is the first Program Summary of the activities of I-INCE. It is planned that this material will be updated and elaborated every other year prior to publication in Noise/News International. Much of the material from this Program Summary will be posted on the 1-INCE home page. The purpose of this Program Summary is to provide a ready reference for the I-INCE Member Societies and their members on the I-INCE programs.", }
