Policy

IACD has consultative status with the United Nations (UNESCO and UNICEF), the International Labour Organisation (ILO) and the World Health Organisation (WHO).
This means that we can participate in meetings and consultations, to be kept in touch with and contribute to latest thinking about social development issues.
IACD's designated representatives in New York are Randy Adams PhD, Board member; James Calvin, Board member; and Esther Farmer, member.
Recent reports and responses to UN and other consultations are attached below.
