© All rights reserved
The Intergovernmental Council of the IPDC meets biennially to guide the planning and implementation of the IPDC, review and assess achievements, discuss latest trends in the media development field and ensure that the Programme is in phase with these developments.
International Programme for the Development of Communication (IPDC) was set up in 1980 as the only intergovernmental programme in the UN system mandated to mobilize international support in order to contribute to sustainable development, democracy and good governance by strengthening the capacities of free and independent media. Since its creation, IPDC has channelled about US$ 105 million to over 1,700 media development projects in some 140 countries. IPDC’s Council is composed of 39 Member States elected by UNESCO’s General Conference. It meets once every two years to reflect on the latest trends in the media development field and give direction to the Programme.
