Established in 1996 by US President Bill Clinton at a G-7 Summit in Lyon, France, ICMP is an intergovernmental organization that helps governments and others to address the issue of missing persons from conflict, human rights abuses, disasters, organized crime, irregular migration and other causes. It helps governments to build rule-of-law institutions that successfully and impartially account for missing persons.
ICMP is known for its pioneering use of modern DNA techniques to identify more than 20,000 people who have gone missing globally. ICMP has developed an Integrated Data Management System (iDMS) to record and share information on all aspects of the missing persons process. ICMP works with civil society organizations, particularly associations of families of the missing, enabling them to become active participants in the process of accounting for their loved ones and to access their right to truth, justice and reparations.
Today, ICMP has programs in the Western Balkans, Syria/MENA, Iraq, Ukraine, the South Caucuses and Vietnam.
ICMP is funded principally by governments and major institutions such as the European Union. In August 2021, the OECD’s Development Assistance Committee unanimously approved ICMP’s inclusion in the list of multilateral organizations that can receive funding under Official Development Assistance programs.
