Federation

How the federation works

IDCDC is a federation of Chapters (host-country and sub-national community cells) and communities of practice, which the charter calls Colleges. One method holds it together: integrity-first governance, protected participation and peer review.

Read the charter

01Chapters and Chapter cells

Each Chapter runs one country programme. It applies the charter’s method within local law and local risk. Chapter cells work in cities, campuses and professional networks.

Minimum controls of every Chapter

  1. Chapter Council (local steering)
  2. Treasurer with basic internal controls
  3. Integrity Liaison
  4. Handling and Safety Officer
  5. Secretary and Records Officer

Recognition states

  1. Provisional
  2. Recognized
  3. Conditional
  4. De-recognized

02Communities of practice

The charter calls them Colleges. They meet in the Academy as communities of practice. Each turns diaspora expertise into reviewed standards, toolkits, curricula and translations.
