Affiliates
All SND members belong to geographic regions, each represented by a regional director on the SND board.
Some members seek more formal local organizations, either as students or as professionals who share common interests or a common language. These groups may organize meetings, competitions or other events. To enable these activities, SND members may form student or professional affiliates.
Additionally, SND members in Regions 11 and 12 host a Web site for news design in Latin America.
Professional affiliates
SND currently has five professional affiliates, SNDS, SND/E, SND/DACH, SND/FR and SND Chinese. Affiliates create their own organizational structures and may charge affiliate dues in addition to the SND membership, but each affiliate is financially independent of SND. For more information, see forming a student affiliate or forming a professional affiliate.
SNDS was founded in Bergen, Norway, by 21 designers from 12 Scandinavian newspapers who gathered in 1985. Now 500 members strong, SNDS holds an annual meeting, sponsors the Best of Scandinavian News Design and European Front and Feature Page Design competitions, and publishes a quarterly SNDS Magazine.
