The International Centre for Migration Policy Development (ICMPD), established in 1993 by Austria and Switzerland, is an international organisation that works in migration-related fields. Although ICMPD has a European basis, it carries out its activities throughout the world, especially in Africa, Central Asia and the Middle East.

The organisation currently has 14 Member States (Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Sweden and Switzerland), about 120 staff members, a mission in Brussels and regional offices and representatives throughout Europe, Northern Africa and the Middle East. ICMPD holds UN observer status.

Through its six Competence Centres, ICMPD provides its 14 Member States and numerous partners with in-depth knowledge and expertise in dealing with the phenomena of migration. It does so through using a holistic 3-pillar approach: research, capacity building and migration dialogues.
