and to disseminate information of interest to members of its component
national associations.
oday FIDIC membership numbers more than 66 countries from all parts
of the globe and the federation represents most of the private practice
consulting engineers in the world.
IDIC arranges seminars, conferences and other events in the furtherance
of its goals: maintenance of high ethical and professional standards;
exchange of views and information; discussion of problems of mutual
concern among member associations and representatives of the international
financial institutions; and development of the engineering profession in
developing countries.
IDIC publications include proceedings of various conferences and
seminars, information for consulting engineers, project owners and
international development agencies, standard pre-qualification forms,
contract documents and client/consultant agreements. They are available
from the secretariat in Switzerland
