Parent organization
International Telecommunication Union

The International Amateur Radio Club (IARC) maintains and operates the amateur radio station 4U1ITU at the International Telecommunication Union building in Geneva, Switzerland. Intended to serve as a model of amateur radio operation, the station was created under the auspices of the Secretary-General of the United Nations and the Secretary-General of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU).

In many radio contests, amateur radio operators are allowed to consider the International Telecommunication Union station 4U1ITU a special entity and because of its significance to world telecommunications it is given similar status to a separate country when making a radio contact.[1] IARC is one of two UN stations considered for such status, the other being 4U1UN at the Headquarters of the United Nations.
