...politics and religion

The IMA seeks a level playing field by insulating its governing body from outside influences. Membership determines policies and voting outcome and procedures. This organization is conceived and designed on the premise of separation of church and state.  While Irish music will always have a place in religion, religion has no place in the function and operation of this organization, website, and related sub sites.  Likewise, where Irish music has its place in politics, politics has no place or bearing on the operation, function, decision making process of this organization.  Membership is the guiding body that determines the course of this journey to preserve, and promote Irish music in all its forms throughout the world.
