Co-chairs of the IDDRTG

The IDDRTG is co-chaired by two members on a rotational basis. Rotation of chairs is staggered to ensure continuity within the group, with one of two co-chairs rotating every year. The co-chairs of the IDDRTG are nominated on a consensual basis at the end of every annual meeting, and agree to a term of 2 years unless specified otherwise.

The Bonn International Centre for Conflict Studies (bicc) and the Cairo International Center for Conflict Resolution, Peacekeeping and Peacebuilding (CCCPA) are currently the co-chairs of the IDDRTG. Having assumed this position already in 2022, CCCPA has the role of the senior co-chair of the two and thereby also the lead responsibility of the IDDRTG. bicc assumed its renewed Co-Chair role (bicc held the Co-Chair last from 2018-2020) following the IDDRTG annual meeting 2024. A new co-chair will be elected to replace CCCPA this year in June 2025.
