Among the alphabet soup of big international organisations like IMF, UN or WTO, the OECD is perhaps one of the less well understood. OECD stands for Organisation for Economic Co-Operation and Development. Located in Paris, the OECD was established as a successor to the Marshall Plan, to serve as forum for policy development and review. Membership consists of a broad group of democratic, market oriented, industrial (or now post-industrial) countries of the world.

Here in Paris, OECD Week at OECD Headquarters is an annual public forum and ministerial meeting. Click here to see the 2019 materials.
