As of May 2024, ILA includes 55 organizations (non-profits and social enterprises) as federated member organizations. https://longevityalliance.org/members/
Recently, ILA has been gathering information about ILA federated members for a new ILA analytical platform. This information is intended to increase the visibility for ILA generally and for ILA federated members. It will emphasize (and sometimes help formulate) their strengths, online presence, current activities, challenges to address, plans, and key figures. Eventually this platform will help promote the longevity research and advocacy field as a whole.
The survey for ILA federated members:
