How we work

Internal Decision Making Process

Internal Decision Making Process

The IIFB organizes its work by open Thematic Working Groups (WG), which gather regularly to discuss topics and help to arrive at a position that will be presented at the international level. Each step of this process is guided by 5 Working Principles:

  1. Participative: allowing to generate active opinion and inputs of all the actors involved in the process.
  2. Inclusive: allowing to take into account the opinions and inputs of all those involved in the process.
  3. Systematic: ensuring the compilation of all the elements and stages that arise during the development of the process;
  4. Practical
  5. Simple
