ICDP boasts a strong and active participation of 22 member nations and the UNESCO to integrate scientists from developing countries into the program. Also scientists from non-member countries can contribute to a certain extend to our program. Partnership and networking with other Earth science programs is being steadily strengthened for an effective use of opportunities.
An overview of activities since the founding of ICDP in 1996 can be seen in the country profiles for members and also for contributors.
