IACD is looking to appoint two members (between 18-32) to join our team of volunteer representatives able to attend UN NGO consultation meetings in New York. To be considered as a rep you must be an IACD member, able to attend meetings in New York and/or Geneva and able to commit time to being part of our team of volunteer members who attend UN-NGO gatherings and consultations.
IACD is unable to pay our member reps to attend these meetings, but it would be a rewarding experience for younger members keen to experience more about the workings of the UN and to represent the interests of IACD members at these meetings.

If you are interested, please send a short 500 word mini CV about yourself and your involvement in community development, together with a brief statement about why you would like to become part of the IACD team representing the association at UN meetings in either New York and/or Geneva. This should be sent to IACD President, Paul Lachapelle paul.lachapelle@montana.edu
