The Société Internationale d'Urologie is the world's only truly international professional organization serving the global community of urologists. Founded in Paris in 1907, the SIU Central Office now serves its members from new premises in Montreal, Canada.

SIU members represent the full spectrum of clinicians and investigators from all subspecialties that come together to diagnose, treat and support patients with urological disease.

The Society’s mission is to enable urologists in all nations, through international cooperation in education and research, to apply the highest standards of urological care to their patients.

The SIU promotes its mission objectives through biennial world congresses, training fellowships, the equipping and maintaining of centres in resource-constrained settings, provision of teaching materials and support of consultations such as the International Consultation on Urological Disease and the joint WHO/ICUD/SIU Consultation on Bladder Cancer. Urology (the Gold Journal) is now the official journal of the Société Internationale d'Urologie.

Through its latest outreach activities and endorsement of regional urological meetings, the SIU continues to find new ways to further the art and science of urological care, worldwide.
