|  | | | |  | What do we do? | | | | | | | | | |  | ICSW and our members are active in a wide range of fields within the general areas of social development, social welfare and social justice. This includes issues such as food and nutrition, welfare and health services, social protection, education and housing, as well as many issues relating to economic development, human rights and community participation. | | |
| | | | | | | | Information and Communications | | | | ICSW gathers and distributes information to civil society organisations, governments and intergovernmental organisations. It spreads information through journals, reports, electronic newsletters and its website. | | |
| | | | | | | | Policy Development and Advocacy | | | ICSW undertakes research and organises consultations to help analyse problems and develop policies. Each of our global biennial conferences covers a very wide range of issues. Other forums, seminars and workshops are convened on specific topics.
We prepare written policy submissions, lobby governments and organise delegations to attend key international meetings. We also work with other international organisations, especially by convening joint meetings and developing consistent policies. | | | | | |
