Fifty-three countries are members of the Commonwealth. Our
countries span Africa, Asia, the Americas, Europe and the Pacific
and are diverse – they are amongst the world’s largest, smallest,
richest and poorest countries. Thirty-one of our members are
classified as small states – countries with a population size of
1.5 million people or less and larger member states that share
similar characteristics with them.All members subscribe to the
Commonwealth’s values and principles outlined in
The Commonwealth Charter.Leaders of member countries
shape Commonwealth policies and priorities. Every two years, they
meet to discuss issues affecting the Commonwealth and the wider
world at the
Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting
(CHOGM).All members have an equal say – regardless of size or
economic stature. This ensures even the smallest member countries
have a voice in shaping the Commonwealth.- See more at:
