The Commonwealth Association of Architects (CAA), established in 1965, is a professional association of national architectural associations representing architects in Commonwealth countries. The stated purpose of the CAA is to "maximise the contribution of architects to the well-being of society." The organisation's mission is to help facilitate real change through the Commonwealth network by advancing policy, education and practice to increase inclusion, equality and prosperity. Ultimately, the CAA aims to help make cities and human settlements safe, resilient and sustainable. The CAA is one of 80 accredited organisations which support the work of the Commonwealth of Nations.
