Partners
Nautilus International works with numerous other bodies, in a variety of ways. The main organisations we have partnerships with are listed on this page.
If you feel your organisation should be listed here but is not present, please contact us at webmaster@nautilusint.org.
We are affiliated to certain professional associations and union federations – which usually means that, as an organisation, the Union is a member of these bodies. Nautilus is not affiliated to any political party.
