OUR VISION

An Australian & Aotearoa New Zealand Enneagram Association

Establishing an International Enneagram Association (IEA) affiliate in Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand would create a thriving community dedicated to the study, application, and ethical practice of the Enneagram across the region. An Australian and Aotearoa New Zealand affiliate would serve as a central hub, connecting practitioners, educators, and enthusiasts in the region, fostering collaboration and knowledge-sharing specific to Australian and Aotearoa New Zealand cultures and communities. It could offer workshops, conferences, and certification programs, bringing together diverse voices and perspectives to enrich the understanding of the Enneagram. By partnering with local organisations and aligning with IEA’s global standards, the affiliate would empower personal growth and professional development through the Enneagram, contributing to region’s vibrant landscape of self-awareness and psychological insight.

About

International Enneagram Association

The International Enneagram Association (IEA), founded in 1994, is a global nonprofit dedicated to the study, teaching, and ethical use of the Enneagram, a personality system with nine interconnected types. The IEA connects practitioners, researchers, and enthusiasts through conferences, certifications, and local chapters, fostering a community committed to using the Enneagram for personal and professional growth. It supports applications in fields like psychology, coaching, business, and spirituality, promoting both the advancement of Enneagram knowledge and its integration into various aspects of life.

TheInternational Enneagram Association (IEA) has affiliates in over 15 countries. These affiliates help extend the IEA’s reach by organising events, workshops, and other resources locally, promoting the Enneagram, and supporting its community worldwide.

Progress to Date

To gauge the level of interest, a well-attended public meeting was held on May 13, 2025. A follow up consultation with key stakeholders led to the formation of an interim board tasked with applying to the IEA Global for affiliate status and registering as a not-for-profit association.

The interim board came together for the first time in 6 July 2025. Office holders were elected and working groups formed to focus on Governance, Communications and Program and Events.
